Utility EWS AG and developer MW Storage have completed the expansion of a battery energy storage system (BESS) project in Switzerland from 20MW to 28MW, making it the country's largest. The companies inaugurated the newly expanded project last week in a ceremony last week (24 May), which adds 8MW. . The redox flow project has enormous storage capacity, expected to be finished in mid-2028. This is what the Laufenburg Technology Center is supposed to look like. Completion is scheduled for 2028. Batteries can store electricity, especially when generation is high and demand is low. The successful delivery of all system components marks a key milestone on the path to commissioning.
