MET Group inaugurates Hungary''s largest battery
MET Group installed a battery energy storage system of 40 MW and a two-hour duration at its gas power plant Dunamenti near Budapest.
Customer ServiceImage: MET Group. IPP MET Group has put a 40M/80MWh BESS in Hungary into commercial operation, deployed using technology from Huawei. The 2-hour battery energy storage system (BESS) is the largest in Hungary, Switzerland-headquartered MET Group said, deployed at its Dunamenti thermal power plant in Százhalombatta, near Budapest.
Historically, Hungary's regulatory framework did not provide clear guidelines for the integration of co-located BESS projects. This lack of specific regulation created uncertainty for investors and developers, hampering the widespread adoption of these energy storage solutions.
While the concept of electricity storage was introduced into Hungarian law earlier, comprehensive policies to support the deployment of co-located BESS systems were lacking.
The new facility supports a growing push to green Hungary's power grid. Hungary has just switched on its largest battery energy storage system (BESS) to date, stepping up its role in Central Europe's growing grid-scale energy transition.
