?? Reflecting on Our EIG Breakfast Series in Copenhagen: A Thought-Provoking Conversation with Joe Kaeser ?? ? Earlier this month, we had the privilege of hosting another Breakfast Series in Copenhagen, where we were joined by a distinguished group of representatives from established institutions, including large pension funds, alternative investors, and banks from the Nordic region. ? Our special guest, Joe Kaeser, EIG Senior Advisor and former CEO of Siemens AG, delivered an insightful discussion that ranged from his leadership experience at Siemens to deep dives into the current socioeconomic and political landscape of Germany and the EU. ? Key highlights from the conversation: ?? Attracting Talent to Germany: Joe shared valuable perspectives on how Germany can address its talent shortages and remain competitive in an evolving global economy. ?? Challenges with Nuclear Energy: We explored the complex issues surrounding nuclear power in Europe and the broader energy transition. ?? Europe’s Global Relevance: A thought-provoking discussion on how Europe can stay relevant amidst global competition, and the critical policy shifts required to navigate this future. ?? Investment Opportunities in Energy Transition: Joe emphasized the vast investment potential in emerging sectors like battery storage, synthetic fuels, carbon capture, blue hydrogen, and EV battery recycling. ? It was an incredibly engaging and enlightening conversation that sparked new ideas on how we can drive progress in the energy transition while navigating complex geopolitical challenges. Thank you to all the attendees for their valuable contributions and to Joe Kaeser for his thought leadership. ? #EnergyTransition #InvestmentOpportunities #Sustainability #EU #Germany #Energy #GreenEnergy #Batteries #CarbonCapture #EV #JoeKaeser #Leadership #Innovation

We’re currently bringing forward proposals for three of the largest #BESS sites in the UK. Combined, they will power nearly two million homes.?? ? One of our projects is Bicker Fen 1&2, located in Lincolnshire. It will have a combined capacity of 1.2GW, enough to power 700,000 homes.??

At Fidra Energy, our goal is to develop, build and operate big batteries in major markets.? ? Find out more about our ambitions from Chris Elder, our Chief Executive Officer, in the clip below ???

Yesterday the National Energy System Operator (NESO) released its advice on achieving clean power in Great Britain by 2030. The report set out that achieving this target is going to be a mammoth task, but an achievable one. The NESO’s report concludes that we need to increase battery storage capacity in Great Britain by between 18 and 22GW in order to provide secure and flexible electricity supply for when generation from renewables is low. Deploying big battery projects will be vital to boosting the UK’s energy storage capacity but it is also important that projects are strategically located to best support the transformation to a clean power system; so it is welcome to see the NESO confirm the North of England, where our Thorpe Marsh project is located, as one of the most suitable locations for new battery storage projects. ?? ?? ??

Our project, Thorpe Marsh, will be the largest battery storage project in the UK at 1.45GW.? ? The 55 acre site, located in Yorkshire is the equivalent size of 42 regulation size football pitches.? ?

How will grid scale battery energy storage play a critical role in the UK’s energy transition?? ? Morris Van Looy, our Chief Growth and Strategy Officer, discusses the benefits of #BESS to consumers and the environment in the clip below ???

We are pleased to announce that Hassana Investment Company and EIG, a leading institutional investor to the global energy and infrastructure sectors, have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to collaborate on infrastructure and energy transition projects in the Middle East through EIG’s targeted US$1 billion dedicated regional fund in which Hassana is considering becoming an anchor investor with an allocation of up to US$250 million. #EIG #MiddleEast #Hassana #Infrastructure #Energytransition Read More: https://lnkd.in/ggdyZ_Qc

There is a growing demand for #BESS to support the UK’s transition to #NetZero.? ? As the UK decarbonises, #RenewableEnergy will be our primary source of electricity.? ? But renewables can be intermittent…? ? Battery storage will allow the UK to access clean energy when the sun isn’t shining, and the wind isn’t blowing ? EIG
