About

Developed by Kilmarnock Flexpower Ltd, Kilmarnock South BESS will be a 350 MW / 1400 MWh project. With a recently confirmed pre-2030 grid connection offer, Kilmarnock South Energy Park will help enable more renewable energy generation to be connected to the electricity grid as the country accelerates towards its Clean Power 2030 goals.

The project has been developed in accordance with local and national guidelines to cause minimal impact to the local area.

Why do we need a BESS?

Renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power are becoming increasingly important, but they can be intermittent. This means that they do not always produce electricity when it is needed. Energy storage systems like BESS can help to balance supply and demand, ensuring that there is always enough electricity available. The UK is one of the world leaders in wind power generation and therefore a significant investment in supporting infrastructure is required. This is especially prevalent in Scotland where there is a lot of wind generation and transmission around the UK.
