Hungarian energy storage power station battery

Hungarian state-owned energy company MVM Balance has ordered a 4.35MWh 750kW sodium-sulphur battery from NGK for a grid storage demonstration project. Due to be operational in May 2025, it will consist of three shipping-container-sized units, installed at a power station in Litér, Veszprém. With its ultra-large capacity in the ampere-hour range, it is specifically developed for the 4-8 hour long-duration energy storage market. By using ∞Cell 1175Ah, the energy storage system integration efficiency increases by 35%, significantly simplifying system integration complexity, and reducing the overall cost of the DC side energy storage system by 25%.
