Building a bigger battery

Meeting the EU’s 2030 decarbonisation targets will require an estimated 108 gigawatts of stationary battery storage – far more than what is currently available.

But fear not, the Voltainer is here. Developed by NorthSTOR+, the stationary energy storage system is based on battery cells originally developed for automobiles. Not only is the product larger and more energy dense than anything currently available, it also offers superior performance, safety and cost-efficiency, not to mention being emissions-free. The NorthSTOR+ manufacturing facility will produce 6 gigawatt hour Voltainer units, which will see over 90 % of its components and equipment sourced from Europe.
