EnBW is inaugurating the 300MW Marbach 4 grid stabilisation plant in southern Germany, the firm said.
- The plant has been built as an open gas turbine that will run on extra-light heating oil.
- The project was previously scheduled to be handed over to the grid operator – TransnetBW - on 30 September, after being in a commissioning phase since 17 July.
- EnBW is also planning to construct at 100MW battery storage facility at the site.
- The plant is intended to be used in situation in which equipment in the transmission network, such as transformers, substations or parts of the network, fail and a critical condition arises in the power grid, Michael Class, head of generation portfolio development at EnBW, said.
