A 5MW/7.45MWh battery storage project near Milton Keynes – Thrive Renewables’ first – has this month entered into construction.
Initial ground works and site preparation have begun, and will be followed by the earthing installation. After this, the trench will be dug and the cable connecting the Wicken battery to the electricity grid will be laid.
The project is expected to be fully operational in August of this year, with Wicken to provide flexibility and balancing services, charging the batteries when clean energy is abundant and exporting it back to the grid during peak usage times. It is also to provide frequency response services to National Grid.

The track running through the quiet, typically English countryside between London and the Sussex coast on first view has little in common with India’s sprawling, busy rail network, but Ivan Stone and his colleagues at Riding Sunbeams hope the former can act as test-bed for technology that could help transform the Indian railways.
Stone is CEO at Riding Sunbeams, a company that unites the worlds of rail technology and clean energy development with a single purpose – to directly provide traction power to sections of the railways from private-wire renewables, initially solar PV but later quite possibly wind too.
