Pulse has developed a pipeline of grid-scale battery storage and energy optimisation projects across the UK, with more than 2GWh of total capacity.
Pulse Clean Energy COO Trevor Wills said: “This large order commitment underscores the viability of Pulse’s project pipeline and our commitment to strengthening energy security in the UK by reaching 1GW+ of installed capacity in the near term.
“Enabling decarbonisation and renewable integration remain a key focus of our efforts, as every megawatt of storage we install will allow locally produced wind and solar to efficiently and reliably serve UK customers.”
In addition, CSI Energy Storage will offer commissioning services for the products, as well as long-term warranties and performance guarantees.
