UKPR - Asfordby Battery Storage Project

With the increase in demand for electrical energy storage, we've been engaged on several BESS sites around the UK. At Asfordby, Oberon Engineering Services were contracted to perform a power system design study and commission the 11KV system for the 20 MW battery storage project. This involved working closely with the end client and the Network Operator to validate the systems.
