Connected to the French transmission network RTE (90 kV), the first phase of Dunkirk’s large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) is now in operation and provides 24/7 services.  

Located on the site of the former TOTAL group oil refinery on the port of Dunkirk (North of France), the system is connected to the extra high voltage electricity transmission network. It will participate in regulating the frequency of the power grid and will support the network during the coldest winter days when it is under voltage and facilitate renewables integration.   

 This major project will help secure the electricity supply, regulate the frequency of the network and reduce intermittent production, which is specific to renewable energies.  

 

 

 

  • For Omexom, the agreement delivers more than a pipeline of distribution grid infrastructure projects. It creates continuity for the operations of the Kivijärvi, Kyyjärvi and Kannonkoski regions, enables the long-term employment of skilled personnel, and provides a solid foundation for the development of local operations in the coming years.

  • CRL has been a defining project for our team, not only because of its scale and technical complexity, but because of what it will mean for Auckland. We are proud of the role Omexom has played, but the achievement belongs to the many people and organisations who worked together to deliver it. Our team showed real capability, commitment and problem-solving throughout, and it is something they should be very proud of.

  • Europe’s challenge is no longer to define ambitious energy targets, but to deliver the infrastructure required to turn those ambitions into reality

    EM-Power Europe is an important platform for us. Here, we show how Omexom is making a tangible contribution to the energy transition. The fact that we are organising our presence at the event together with our international colleagues also highlights the strength of our global network.
