Monsson and Prime Batteries sign a memorandum for 1,070 MWh of batteries for projects in Romania and Europe
Monsson and Prime Batteries have signed a cooperation memorandum for the supply of 1,070 MWh of batteries produced at the Cernica factory, which Monsson will use in its own projects in Romania and Europe that are already contracted by third parties, as well as in projects it is currently developing in Sweden.
The objective is to increase the flexibility of the national energy system, accelerate the implementation of renewable projects, and optimise existing projects by providing premium flexibility services.
“This memorandum provides us with a clear trajectory for the implementation of 1,070 MWh of energy storage systems based on our cooled-hall solution and strengthens Monsson’s capacity to deliver bankable, scalable projects that can be connected to the grid quickly. We aim to provide flexibility services on the Romanian and wider European markets, but using European technology that is secure both in terms of equipment delivery and cybersecurity, which is so important today for these installations that are of vital importance to the national energy system. We have focused on developing an efficient, liquid-cooled storage system, with an average efficiency higher than that of the systems currently installed in Romania and Europe – systems that we can now deliver together with Prime also on an EPC basis,” said Sebastian Enache, Head of M&A, Monsson.
“The partnership with Monsson leverages Prime Batteries’ expertise in developing and delivering BESS solutions at industrial scale. We will support the programme with competitive technologies, predictable delivery times and lifecycle services in order to increase grid flexibility and accelerate the energy transition,” said Vicențiu Ciobanu, CEO, Prime Batteries.
