TRICERA energy and Eurus Energy Europe have entered into a contract to develop a grid-connected battery storage facility near Waardenburg in the municipality of West-Betuwe, the Netherlands. The project will feature an installed energy capacity of 40 megawatt-hours (MWh) and a power capacity of 15 megawatts (MW). Once operational, the system will be integrated with Eurus’s existing 21 MW wind farm and will participate in energy trading markets to optimize revenue streams and grid support services.
Eurus Energy Europe, a subsidiary of Toyota Tsusho Corporation, develops and invests in renewable energy projects across six European countries. In this collaboration, TRICERA energy will serve as the general contractor and system integrator. TRICERA’s responsibilities include detailed engineering, overall plant construction, and delivery of the medium-voltage station. The company will also oversee the integration of battery containers supplied by Gotion High-Tech.
As part of the balance-of-plant scope, TRICERA energy will install key electrical system components such as inverters, transformers, and medium-voltage switchgear. An advanced energy management system will be deployed to coordinate charging and discharging cycles, ensuring the storage system meets both grid requirements and market signals. The facility’s design will enable fast response times for frequency regulation, capacity reserves, and peak shaving, supporting grid stability and maximizing economic returns.
By combining wind generation with battery storage, the project aims to enhance renewable energy utilization and provide flexible capacity to the Dutch grid. Integration of storage assets alongside existing wind infrastructure can mitigate output variability and contribute to grid resilience. Completion of the facility is expected to demonstrate the value of hybrid renewable energy systems in Europe’s evolving energy market.
