Taiwan Energy Storage Power Station Project

What is Taipower's energy storage system at Longtan Taoyuan?

Taipower’s energy storage system at Longtan, Taoyuan is a key project for the Taiwan government. In the future, when a large amount of offshore wind power is connected to the Taipower system, energy storage systems will play a key role in stabilizing the power grid. Safety is a core element of Fluence's business.

What is Taiwan's largest energy storage system?

On June 30, 2022, the plant successfully connected to the grid, with a capacity of 20 megawatts (MW) and a total energy storage capacity of 20,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh). At the time, the achievement set the record for the largest energy storage system in Taiwan and was capable of providing one hour of electricity to 40,000 households.

How energy storage system works in Taiwan?

The energy storage system can discharge power immediately to fill any power gaps, and its hour of duration provides enough time for all the natural gas units across Taiwan to start up and restore power. It is anticipated that similar energy storage facilities will be gradually established throughout Taiwan in the coming years.

Will Taiwan's energy storage system play a role in grid stability?

TECO Chairman Sophia Chiu pointed out that in the future when a large amount of offshore wind power is added to Taiwan's power system, energy storage systems will play an important role in grid stability.

Who makes Taipower energy storage systems?

The total solution is designed, manufactured, and built by Delta, which specializes in one-stop integrated services. Featuring high efficiency and safety, this system is Taipower's largest energy storage system.

Who supplied the energy storage system at Taoyuan Longtan?

Located at the Taoyuan Longtan ultra-high voltage substation, the energy storage system was supplied by Fluence in partnership with TECO Electric & Machinery Co. (TECO).
