Scotland hosts more than 14 GW of installed wind capacity against limited transmission export capacity to England. This creates persistent, locational price signals that batteries can capture. Curtailment payments exceeded £390 million in 2024, land costs are lower than the South of England, and connections in SSEN and SP Transmission footprints are often available in 24–36 months versus 5–7 years further south.

Our standard deployments are 50–200 MW with 2-hour or 4-hour durations, connecting at 132 kV or 275 kV. We also support landowners with sub-50 MW distribution-connected projects and have long-duration storage (LDES) projects in development up to 400 MW / 3,200 MWh under the Ofgem Cap and Floor regime.

We run a hybrid commercial strategy. Typically 60–70% of revenue is merchant (wholesale arbitrage plus Balancing Mechanism dispatch), stacked with 20–30% from Dynamic ancillary services (DC, DM, DR) and 5–10% from the GB Capacity Market. For investors seeking floor protection, we offer tolling agreements and revenue-share structures with a contracted floor price.

Yes. If you are a landowner, estate or farm within 3 km of a 33 kV, 132 kV or 275 kV substation in Scotland, we would welcome a confidential conversation. We offer option fees at signing, development payments at planning, and index-linked rent over 40 years.

Typical timelines from origination to energisation in Scotland are 28–42 months: 6–12 months for grid offer acceptance and planning, 12–18 months for procurement and detailed design, 9–12 months for construction and energisation. We have operational assets delivered in under 30 months on brownfield sites.

We are technology-agnostic but typically procure tier-1 lithium-ion systems from CATL, Sungrow, Wartsila and Tesla. For long-duration applications we evaluate iron-air (Form Energy), vanadium flow (Invinity) and compressed air (Hydrostor).
