Energy storage systems developed for optimal
With the support of Enemalta plc, detailed power flow studies are being carried out on how the electrical distribution network performs under the ever-increasing generation from Photovoltaic (PV) installations on the Maltese islands.
Battery Energy Storage Systems
Interconnect Malta Ltd. (ICM) has been entrusted the responsibility to implement two Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) to be connected to the Maltese National electric grid network. BESS is essentially a group of large batteries configured to store and dispatch electrical energy with very fast response when required.
