SEB Nordic Energy’s portfolio company, Locus Energy, in collaboration with Ingrid Capacity, will build the largest battery energy storage project in the Nordics. The project will add 70 MW/140 MWh of storage capacity to SEB Nordic Energy’s Finnish portfolio, which already includes wind and hydropower.
The project will add 70 MW/140 MWh of storage capacity to SEB Nordic Energy’s Finnish portfolio, which already includes wind and hydropower. Located in Nivala Municipality in Finland’s Ostrobothnia region, the project is expected to be completed in 2026.
Romina Pourmokhtari, Sweden’s Minister for Climate and Environment, officially inaugurated the largest energy storage park in the Nordic region. The initiative, led by Ingrid Capacity in collaboration with BW ESS, consists of 14 large-scale energy storage systems with a total capacity of 211 MW/211 MWh.
Ingrid Capacity plans to build an additional 13 energy storage facilities in Sweden by the end of 2024, with a total capacity of 196 MW/196 MWh. By the second half of 2025, the company aims to have over 400 MW/400 MWh of flexible resources in the Swedish electricity grid.
Here are some of the emerging technologies in this transformation: Battery energy storage solutions (BESS) are expanding across the Nordics, starting from a low base, supported by significant price reductions in recent years. (See news of the first larger BESS debt financing in the Nordics.)

The global solar folding container and energy storage container market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with portable and outdoor power demand increasing by over 400% in the past three years. Solar folding container solutions now account for approximately 50% of all new portable solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 45% market share, driven by emergency response needs and outdoor industry demand. Europe follows with 40% market share, where energy storage containers have provided reliable electricity for off-grid applications and remote operations. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 60% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing solar folding container system prices by 30% annually. Emerging markets are adopting solar folding containers for disaster relief, outdoor events, and remote power, with typical payback periods of 1-3 years. Modern solar folding container installations now feature integrated systems with 15kW to 100kW capacity at costs below $1.80 per watt for complete portable energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving outdoor power generation systems and off-grid energy storage performance while reducing operational costs for various applications. Next-generation solar folding containers have increased efficiency from 75% to over 95% in the past decade, while battery storage costs have decreased by 80% since 2010. Advanced energy management systems now optimize power distribution and load management across outdoor power systems, increasing operational efficiency by 40% compared to traditional generator systems. Smart monitoring systems provide real-time performance data and remote control capabilities, reducing operational costs by 50%. Battery storage integration allows outdoor power solutions to provide 24/7 reliable power and load optimization, increasing energy availability by 85-98%. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with solar folding container projects typically achieving payback in 1-2 years and energy storage containers in 2-3 years depending on usage patterns and fuel cost savings. Recent pricing trends show standard solar folding containers (15kW-50kW) starting at $25,000 and large energy storage containers (100kWh-1MWh) from $50,000, with flexible financing options including rental agreements and power purchase arrangements available.
