    Verbund, Austria's largest electricity company, partnered with Nidec to install an 8MW battery energy storage system (BESS) coupled to a hydro power plant to provide primary control power. The BESS can provide 8MW of primary control power on its own or 16MW combined with the hydro plant. This allows the hydro plant to reduce mechanical stress by limiting its primary control contributions to rare cases over 100mHz. The BESS contains 5 containers with over 60,000 lithium-ion battery cells totaling 10MW of output capacity. This innovative combination of storage and hydro power provides a stable supply as Austria aims for 100% renewable electricity by 2030.

    8MW BESS COUPLED TO HYDRO FOR

    PRIMARY CONTROL POWER


    Verbund, Austria

    THE CHALLENGE:

    In 2020 Nidec was chosen by Verbund, Austria’s leading electricity company and one of the largest producers of
    hydropower electricity in Europe, as supplier for Austria’s biggest power plant battery in operation, Blue Battery.

    NIDEC SCOPE OF SUPPLY: THE SPECIFIC GOAL IS THAT THE BESS CAN EITHER PROVIDE:

    -PMS / EMS/ Scada/ Interfaces 8MW Primary control power in stand-alone or 16 MW in combination with the
    to HPP structure hydro power plant. In this case the battery operated in double power output in
    -MV distribution for BESS the range of +/- 100 mHz deviation compared to a 8MW stand-alone BESS and
    (1 Container) only in the rare cases where the +/-100mHz are exceeded the HPP provides the
    -Aux power distribution / UPS additional required power.
    -Containerized BESS (5x)
    including aux systems (Fire
    detection and fighting, HVAC)
    - Power electronics
    - Batteries
    - Installation, Erection,
    Commissioning, Test operation,
    Service

    INDUSTRIAL SOLUTIONS
    TECHNICAL DATA: THE SOLUTION:

    Battery storage capacity: By 2030 Austria aims to make its electricity supply 100% renewable in terms of
    - MW primary control power balance sheet. The future of the electricity supply must be flexible because wind
    - Additional 2 MW power for and sun are occasionally unpredictable suppliers of energy. With the innovative
    charging management plant, Verbund is setting standards for more efficiency and reliability of supply.
    - Primary control power of the
    entire system (battery and The main driver for Verbund was to establish a combined HPP/ BESS system
    hydropower plant) 16 MW for the provision of primary control power which limits the contribution of the
    - Storage capacity of battery HPP to a minimum, drastically reducing the mechanical stress on the blades and
    storage 14.2 MWh (or 10 MWh increasing the HPP system lifetime.
    at “end of life”)
    - Number of lines (each with one Five inconspicuous containers on the site contain around 61,000 lithium-ion
    converter/transformer): 5 battery cells with a total output of 10 MW (8 MW primary control plus 2 MW
    Number of storage cells: 60,928 output for charging management). If the power system requires a primary control
    reserve at short notice, this is largely provided at the site by the Blue Battery,
    which is then always charged directly by the hydropower plant.

    Only in exceptional cases, when the frequency deviations are too strong, a
    turbine of the hydropower plant is switched on for primary control. This unique
    combination of storage system and hydropower plant provides the power system
    with a total of 16 MW of primary control power.

    Grid support through the supply of primary control power is an essential part of
    the energy industry to ensure a stable power grid in Austria and has recently
    become increasingly important. The reasons for this are, on the one hand, the
    significant increase in volatile generation units such as wind and solar energy
    and, on the other hand, the decommissioning of thermal power plants that have
    been used for grid support.
