6 FAQs about Lithuania flywheel energy storage project

How will Lithuania support energy storage projects?

Image: Energy Cells via LinkedIn. Lithuania can move ahead with a scheme to provide €180 million (US$200 million) in grants to energy storage projects after it was approved by the EU. The programme will provide direct grants for the construction of the projects, with a target to support at least 1.2GWh of energy storage projects.

Why is Lithuania launching a major energy storage procurement exercise?

Only a day before cutting ties with the Russian power grid, the Baltic state announced the launch of a major energy storage procurement exercise. Lithuania has announced a EUR 102 million ($ 105 million) energy storage tender in a bid to procure balancing services to the transmission system operator and ensure the resilience of its grid.

How many battery energy storage systems are there in Lithuania?

The four battery energy storage systems (BESS), 50MW/50MWh each, have been handed over by Fluence and are now providing services to Litgrid, the transmission system operator (TSO) in Lithuania. They followed a smaller, 1MW/1MWh pilot project to test the use case back in 2021.

Will Lithuania install 800 MWh of energy storage facilities?

In the procurement exercise, Lithuania is seeking to install at least 800 MWh of energy storage facilities, which will be directly connected to the transmission network by the end of 2028.

What makes a flywheel a great energy storage system?

The flywheel is modular and offers unparalleled configurability in terms of power to energy ratio, which makes it the first dynamic energy storage system whose discharge duration can be matched exactly to the customer's needs.
