BYD launches new energy storage system
BYD''s Battery-Box HVE, the company''s first integrated tool for domestic energy storage will hit European markets in June.
The project incorporates Tesla Megapack lithium-ion batteries. Image: TagEnergy. Renewable energy developer TagEnergy has energised what it claims is the UK's largest transmission-connected battery energy storage system (BESS): the 100MW/200MWh Lakeside project in North Yorkshire.
The system is capable of meeting the average daily electricity needs of around 44,000 homes. It's possible that BW ESS' new facility is the largest battery energy storage system in Europe, with it taking the crown of UK's largest from TagEnergy's 100 MW / 200 MWh facility located in Drax, North Yorkshire.

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are crucial for the energy transition, providing flexibility and stability to the grid. They store energy from renewable sources like solar and wind, and release it when needed, helping to balance supply and demand. In the UK we are due to energise our first two UK batteries, based in Scotland, in spring 2025.
100MW / 331MWh battery storage system is now operational, forming a key part of BW ESS' UK investment programme. London, 18th February 2025 — BW ESS has announced the energisation of its innovative 100MW / 331MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) near Bramley, Hampshire.
