Battery storage
for the energy transition

As a project developer, we create the necessary flexibility for the power grid of the future with our battery storage projects.

We offer: tailored partnership models, projects of any size, and reliable execution.

Flexible grid connection agreements are
the key to operating battery storage systems in a cost-effective manner and
in a way that benefits the grid.

Structured Project Development from a Single Source

A successful battery storage project begins long before the battery is ordered. The strategy and business case are followed by site and grid connection assessments, permitting, financing and contract structuring, as well as EPC contracting and construction. In addition, we identify suitable solicitations and support or manage participation in relevant procurement processes. After commissioning and prequalification, the continuous marketing and optimization of the asset begins. FBS supports this process from the initial site assessment through to the operational storage project.

How do grid-connected battery storage systems work?

The more our electricity supply relies on wind and solar energy, the more important it becomes to shift energy over time. Battery storage makes electricity available when it’s actually needed —quickly, flexibly, and scalably.

Store

Use surplus energy efficiently, e.g., on sunny or windy days

Provide

Make stored energy available flexibly and as needed during peak demand periods.

Optimize

Relieve and sustainably strengthen the power grid through intelligent control of the storage system.

Shaping the Future Together with Battery Storage Systems

Battery storage project development is an important building block for a climate-friendly and reliable energy supply. Let us shape the (energy) future together!

Reference projects

A 10 MW / 22.4 MWh battery storage system is operated in the Lower Bavarian district of Passau.
A 10 MW / 22.4 MWh battery storage system is operated in the Upper Franconian district of Kulmbach.
A 9.2 MW / 17.6 MWh battery storage facility is being built in the North Rhine-Westphalian city region of Aachen.

How we develop new projects

Step 1

Site qualification

As a project developer, we identify suitable sites in close proximity to strong grid infrastructure, such as substations, and carefully coordinate the project with the owners and the local municipality. We place great importance on what makes sense locally and is acceptable on site.

Step 2

Grid connection planning

Together with the local distribution system operator, we plan the grid connection capacities, taking into account grid compatibility and the local situation in the power grid.

Step 3

Planning law and permitting

We are responsible for the comprehensive execution of all tasks required to establish planning permission, through to the approval of the battery storage project. To this end, we work with a renowned architecture firm.

Step 4

Business plan and transaction

We analyse each project with its specific characteristics and develop a tailored business plan with clear recommendations. Thanks to our deep understanding of each project’s specifics and a clear assessment of strengths and weaknesses, we can offer our customers the best possible outcome.

For municipalities and property owners

Our storage systems require only a small footprint and produce few emissions relative to their electrical capacity.

Ideally suited for municipalities that cannot build solar or wind farms due to emissions-control requirements or space constraints – more than just a compromise, because the energy transition needs large-scale battery storage.

We develop our projects so that they fit the people on site.

Trade Tax

Benefit from trade tax revenues generated by the storage system in your municipality.

Minimal soil sealing

Our storage facilities are located on lots ranging in size from 300 to 3,000 m², the majority of which remains unpaved.

Strengthening local power infrastructure

The storage systems provide ancillary services for the local power grid.

Flagship project for your region

Bring the energy transition to life locally and actively demonstrate it.

Easy decommissioning

By minimising land impact, our storage systems are compatible with the landscape and can be dismantled easily and quickly.

Have us assess your sites near substations without obligation.

“A large-scale battery storage system can replace fossil-fuel peaking power plants; in the context of our energy crisis, every MWh counts.”
