Ua loaʻa i ka Welbar Energy Storage, kahi hui hui ma waena o Penso Power a me Luminous Energy, ua ʻae ʻia e hoʻolālā e hoʻomohala a hoʻopololei i kahi ʻōnaehana hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka pā uila 350MW me ka lōʻihi o ʻelima mau hola ma UK.
He 1,750MWh ka mana o ka HamsHall lithium-ion battery power storage project ma North Warwickshire, UK, a ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi o ʻelima mau hola.
E hoʻoili ʻia ka ʻōnaehana mālama pākaukau ʻo 350MW HamsHall i hui pū ʻia me ka mahiʻai solar 100MW Minety o PensoPower, e kauoha ʻia i 2021.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Penso Power e hāʻawi ia i kahi ākea o nā lawelawe e kākoʻo i nā hana grid UK, me ka hiki ke hana i nā lawelawe lōʻihi.
Pono ka UK a hiki i ka 24GW o ka mālama ʻana i ka ikehu no ka manawa lōʻihi e hoʻopau piha i ka pahu ma 2035, e like me kahi noiʻi a Aurora Energy Research i paʻi ʻia ma Pepeluali. Ke ulu nui nei nā pono o ka ʻoihana mālama i ka ikehu, me ka UK Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy e hoʻolaha ana ma kahi o £7 miliona i ke kālā e kākoʻo i kāna hoʻomohala ʻana ma mua o kēia makahiki.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Richard Thwaites, Luna Hoʻokele o Penso Power: "No laila, me kā mākou kumu hoʻohālike, e ʻike maoli mākou i nā ʻoihana waiwai i nā papahana mālama ikehu nui. Hoʻopili kēia i nā kumukūʻai pili, nā kumukūʻai hoʻolaha, ke kūʻai ʻana, a me nā hana mau a me nā ala i ka mākeke. No laila, manaʻo mākou he mea ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi mai ka ʻike kālā e hoʻonohonoho a hana i nā papahana mālama mālama ikehu nui. "
E hoʻoili ʻia ka ʻōnaehana mālama pākaukau ʻo HamsHall ma Birmingham hikina ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana o ka ʻoi aku o 3GWh o nā papahana mālama pākaukau i hoʻolako ʻia e ka hui kai moana honua ʻo BW Group, ma lalo o kahi ʻaelike i hoʻolaha ʻia e Penso Power i ʻOkakopa 2021.
E lilo ʻo Penso Power, Luminous Energy a me BW Group i mau ʻāpana hui i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka papahana mālama pākaukau ʻo Hams Hall, a ʻo nā ʻoihana mua ʻelua e kiaʻi pū i ka papahana mālama pākaukau i ka wā e hana ai.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo David Bryson o Luminous Energy, "Pono ka UK i ʻoi aku ka mana o kāna lako ikehu i kēia manawa. Ua hoʻomaikaʻi ka mālama ʻana i ka ikehu i ka hilinaʻi o ka mākia o UK. ʻO kēia papahana kekahi o nā papahana a mākou e hoʻolālā nei e hoʻomohala a hāʻawi pū kekahi i ka hāʻawi kālā i nā hoʻolālā kūloko a me nā ʻōmaʻomaʻo.
Ua hoʻomohala mua ʻo Penso Power i ka papahana mālama pākaukau 100MW Minety, e hoʻokō piha ʻia ana i Iulai 2021. ʻO ka papahana mālama ikehu he ʻelua mau ʻōnaehana hoʻopaʻa ʻana i nā pā uila, me nā hoʻolālā e hoʻohui i kahi 50MW hou.
Manaʻo ka hui e hoʻomau i ka hoʻomohala ʻana a me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā ʻōnaehana mālama pākaukau ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi.
Ua hoʻohui hou ʻo Thwaites, "Ke kahaha nei au i ka ʻike ʻana i nā papahana mālama pākaukau hoʻokahi hola, ke ʻike nei iā lākou e hele i ka pae hoʻolālā. ʻAʻole maopopo iaʻu ke kumu e hana ai kekahi i nā papahana mālama pākaukau no hoʻokahi hola no ka mea ua kaupalena ʻia kāna hana,"
I kēia manawa, nānā ʻo Luminous Energy i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka lā nui apākaukaunā papahana hoʻopaʻa ʻana, ua kau ʻia ma mua o 1GW o nā papahana mālama pākaukau a puni ka honua.
