The 120 MW / 240 MWh Saleux battery storage project is a landmark for both Envision Energy and France’s energy infrastructure development. As France pushes toward greater renewable integration and net-zero commitments, projects like this will become increasingly essential.
France had 90MW of capacity in 2022 and this is expected to rise to 359MW by 2030. Listed below are the five largest energy storage projects by capacity in France, according to GlobalData’s power database. GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of the global energy storage segment.
Global energy storage capacity was estimated to have reached 36,735MW by the end of 2022 and is forecasted to grow to 353,880MW by 2030. France had 90MW of capacity in 2022 and this is expected to rise to 359MW by 2030. Listed below are the five largest energy storage projects by capacity in France, according to GlobalData’s power database.
With this project, Envision Energy expands its footprint in Europe’s fast-growing energy storage market, where demand for grid-scale solutions is surging. Envision has already executed several successful deployments across the UK, Germany, and Italy, but the Saleux contract is its first standalone BESS project in France.
This turnkey energy storage initiative represents Envision Energy’s first independent BESS contract in France, solidifying its presence in a critical European market and reinforcing its commitment to accelerating the energy transition through large-scale, intelligent, and reliable energy infrastructure.
