Operators recently turned on what is now Belgium’s largest battery energy storage system (BESS), as backed by Tesla’s Megapack grid-scale batteries. The Ville-sur-Haine BESS project in Wallonia, Belgium became operational over the weekend, as supported by 53 Tesla Megapacks for 50MW/200 MWh of capacity.
With this new project, ENGIE reaches 500 MW of BESS capacity in Europe, either installed, under construction or at an advanced stage of development. On 31 October 2024, Belgian grid operator Elia announced the result of the country’s 4th CRM auction and the selection of ENGIE’s Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project in Kallo.
In May 2023, we launched our largest European battery-based energy storage project at the Antwerp platform in Belgium. With its 40 containers, the site will develop a capacity of 75 MWh, which is equivalent to the daily consumption of almost 10,000 homes.
Featuring 27 containers, each with a storage capacity of 2.5 MWh, it can maintain power for over 200,000 homes for one hour. With a total storage capacity of 61 MWh, this is the largest battery-based energy storage site in France. The battery-based ESS facility at the Carling platform came on stream in May 2022 and comprises 11 battery containers.
These two projects, which represent a global investment of nearly €70 million, will bring TotalEnergies' storage capacity in Belgium to 50 MW / 150 MWh. In July 2024, we signed the final investment decision for a 100 MW/200 MWh battery electricity storage project in Dahlem.
In February 2020, TotalEnergies was awarded 129 megawatts (MW) of battery-based storage capacity in France as part of a call for tenders issued by the French Electricity Transmission System Operator (RTE).
The global solar storage container market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 200% in the past two years. Pre-fabricated containerized solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new utility-scale storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 40% market share, driven by streamlined permitting processes and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 15-25%. Europe follows closely with 32% market share, where standardized container designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with China's manufacturing scale reducing container prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting mobile container solutions for rapid electrification, with typical payback periods of 3-5 years. Major projects now deploy clusters of 20+ containers creating storage farms with 100+MWh capacity at costs below $280/kWh.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar storage container performance while reducing costs. Next-generation thermal management systems maintain optimal operating temperatures with 40% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $80/kWh to $45/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple containers to operate as coordinated virtual power plants, increasing revenue potential by 25% through peak shaving and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and gas detection systems have reduced insurance premiums by 30% for container-based projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple container additions at just $210/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial projects typically achieving payback in 4-7 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show 20ft containers (1-2MWh) starting at $350,000 and 40ft containers (3-6MWh) from $650,000, with volume discounts available for large orders.
