United KingdomThe Hallen Battery Energy Storage Scheme (BESS) project, a 32 megawatt/32 megawatthour storage plant near Bristol in the Avonmouth region, has been commissioned by Voltalia.

Hallen BESS is a lithium-ion battery storage facility with 16 modules, each with a capacity of 2 megawatthours. It is located in Avonmouth, near Bristol. The Hallen plant will provide frequency management, balancing, and other ancillary services to the UK grid, both locally and nationally.
