Join Wärtsilä Energy Storage and Zenobē for a deep-dive into the 200 MW / 400 MWh Blackhillock battery energy storage system in Scotland—one of the largest operational BESS in Europe and a breakthrough in grid stability and clean energy integration.

This session will explore how Blackhillock is setting new benchmarks for what energy storage can deliver, both in the UK and globally.

What makes Blackhillock unique:

  1. One of Europe’s largest operational BESS: Raising the bar for grid-scale storage

  2. First BESS delivered under the NOA Stability Pathfinder Programme: A new model for delivering system stability

  3. Advanced system services: Among the first in the world to deliver stability services at this scale

  4. Grid-forming innovation: Providing virtual inertia and short-circuit current to keep the grid balanced as renewables grow

In this webinar, experts will cover:

  1. UK market dynamics and what’s driving the need for advanced grid services

  2. How synthetic inertia and short-circuit current provision support grid stability as thermal power plants retire

  3. The flexibility and intelligence of the controls and optimisation software, GEMS, in managing multi-tenant energy trading

  4. How Blackhillock can serve as a benchmark for future reliable, decarbonised power systems
