From ESS News Lisbon-headquartered renewable energy company TagEnergy has launched the construction of France’s biggest battery energy storage system (BESS). Tesla will contribute to the project also, offering market access services and its expertise in advanced storage solutions.
Other large-scale BESS projects in France have also progressed recently. Late last month, Switzerland-based IPP Alpiq acquired a BESS project from UK-based developer Harmony Energy Oise, north of Paris, while Harmony Energy announced it would build a separate project near Nantes in July – both sized at 100MW/200MWh.
The largest operational BESS in France that Energy-Storage.news has reported on is a 61MW/61MWh project owned by oil and gas major TotalEnergies, deployed by its system integrator subsidiary Saft. IPP TagEnergy will soon start construction on the largest BESS project in France, at 240MW/480MWh, with Tesla providing BESS and EPC services.
After previous triumphs in Europe, this project represents Envision Energy’s first independent battery energy storage contract in France. Envision Energy will provide a minimum of a 14-year long-term maintenance (LTSA) agreement, starting construction in June 2025, ensuring ongoing presence in the area once the construction phase is complete.
ENERGY starts constructing one of the biggest battery energy storage projects in France The 44 MWh energy storage roject will be installed on the Emile Huchet power plant site in the northe st of France. Once commissioned, it will be one of the largest facilities in the country. Q ENERGY is currently riving a develo
The battery energy storage system (BESS) will optimise the use of renewables on the grid, provide extra capacity during peak demand periods, and provide grid stability services. It will cover 20% of the residential electricity needs for the whole Marne department, where around 565,000 people live.
The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%. Europe follows closely with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 65% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing scale reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting industrial storage solutions for peak shaving and backup power, with typical payback periods of 2-4 years. Major commercial projects now deploy clusters of 15+ systems creating storage networks with 80+MWh capacity at costs below $270/kWh for large-scale industrial applications.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving industrial energy storage performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal operating conditions with 45% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $85/kWh to $40/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple industrial systems to operate as coordinated energy networks, increasing cost savings by 30% through peak shaving and demand charge management. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and thermal runaway prevention systems have reduced insurance premiums by 35% for industrial storage projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple system additions at just $200/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial and industrial projects typically achieving payback in 3-5 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (1-2MWh) starting at $330,000 and large-scale systems (3-6MWh) from $600,000, with volume discounts available for enterprise orders.
