Recently, e-STORAGE, the energy storage subsidiary of Canadian Solar, has signed a contract with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (“CIP”). e-STORAGE will provide CIP with 2GWh of energy storage systems. The systems will be used in the 1GWh Coalburn 2 project in South Lanarkshire and the 1GWh Devilla project in Fife, north of Edinburgh, with construction of Coalburn 2 and Devilla expected to begin in 2027.
e-STORAGE will provide approximately 450 SolBank 3.0 battery storage units in the construction of the two projects. Under a long-term service agreement with CIP, e-STORAGE will be responsible for the long-term facility performance and operational management of the two projects. Based on the average electricity consumption of UK households, these two projects will be sufficient to power approximately 250,000 local homes and will help improve grid stability, reduce carbon emissions and drive the UK's transition to clean energy.
The Coburn 2 and Devila projects are expected to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 4.57 million tons, making an important contribution to combating climate change. The two projects will promote efficient local transmission of renewable energy and offshore wind power, and protect biodiversity through environmental measures such as tree planting and habitat construction.
