EnBW to install 100MW battery storage system in Marbach, Germany

By

Energie Baden-Württemberg (EnBW) has announced plans to develop a 100MW/100MWh battery storage facility at its Marbach power plant site in Germany, for enhancing grid stability in southern Germany rather than direct household power supply. Construction is scheduled to start next year, with the facility expected to be operational by the end of 2025.

The project will use cobalt-free lithium iron phosphate batteries and will share infrastructure resources with EnBW’s existing facilities, creating synergies, including the grid connection. 

This initiative aligns with EnBW’s strategy to integrate battery storage with other energy sources like pumped storage and hydrogen-capable gas-fired plants for a more adaptable and reliable power supply.
