Battery storage is the key to grid stability in Austria in 2026. 7 GW by 2040 to enable 100% renewable electricity by 2030. Storage demand will increase eightfold to 8. 9 MW in operating power and 43. 8 MWh in capacity, it is again the country's largest grid-supporting BESS. With this, the energy provider is taking the next step in transforming the conventional power plant into a future-ready energy hub. The new storage system is a key technology for the energy. . The EU Green Deal and the European Climate Law are the main drivers of this development through their ambitious targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the EU by 55% by 2030 (established in the “Fit for 55 package”) and to 0% by 2050. Additionally, and building on the “Fit for 55 package”. . AFRY's assignment covers the execution design of the main caverns including structural calculations, coordination with EM parts, preparation of formwork and reinforcement drawings and a 3-D coordination model of the main structures of the PSPP.
