NGEN Group launches 9.4 MW battery project in Poland; more large-scale investments underway

NGEN Group, a high-tech company with a strong focus on innovation in the energy sector, particularly in the management and construction of battery storage systems, announced that it has launched an energy storage project in Poland. The initiative marks a significant step in the company’s expansion into the Polish market, where it leverages cutting-edge technology to support the country’s transition to a more sustainable and resilient energy infrastructure.

NGEN Group said it plans to undertake several similar projects across Europe in the coming year, including the development of battery systems with a total capacity of up to 1.6 GWh in countries such as Germany, Italy, Portugal, Poland, Croatia, and Austria.

The new battery energy storage system (BESS) will have a power capacity of 9.4 MW and an energy capacity of 18.8 MWh. Powered by Tesla Megapack 2XL technology, the system is designed to provide critical grid balancing services for Poland’s energy system, enhancing network flexibility and stability.

Significant environmental benefits

Beyond these operational benefits, the project is expected to deliver a significant environmental impact, saving approximately 1,800 tons of CO2 emissions annually. This aligns with broader trends in Poland.

“We are thrilled to introduce this advanced energy storage solution in Poland, which is fully aligned with our mission: ‘We are accelerating the green transition with innovative and sustainable energy solutions.’ This drives the next generation of sustainable energy,” said Roman Bernard, co-founder and CEO of NGEN Group. “By integrating Tesla Megapack technology, we are not only strengthening the reliability of the national grid but also contributing to Poland’s ambitious goals for renewable energy integration and carbon emission reduction.”

The project highlights NGEN Group’s expertise in delivering tailored, comprehensive energy solutions for businesses and energy services. As Poland continues to expand its renewable energy portfolio, initiatives like this battery storage system will play a crucial role in managing the intermittency of sources such as wind and solar, ensuring a stable electricity supply, and reducing reliance on fossil fuels.

NGEN is expanding its model across Europe

The company has already successfully collaborated on projects such as the development of a battery system for Uniper in Germany, and it aims to expand this model across Europe.

Based in Slovenia, NGEN Group, meaning Next Generation, specializes in innovative energy solutions, management, and construction of battery storage systems with intelligent balancing group management systems.

The company employs approximately 165 experts, develops proprietary software solutions, and offers customized services to promote sustainable energy practices across Europe. Its vision is a fully digitized and decentralized European energy system that keeps pace with the rapid growth of renewable energy and societal electrification.

NGEN was the technology sponsor this year of Belgrade Energy Forum, an annual conference organized by Balkan Green Energy News.
