Corsica Sole and Evecon are planning the construction of two battery storage power plants with a total capacity of 400 MWh in Estonia. . The 100 MW/200 MWh battery energy storage project in Kiisa began operation on February 3 as scheduled – just two weeks after a testing fault at the facility caused the most significant disturbance to the regional power grid since Estonia's desynchronization from the Russian electricity system. With a capacity of 53 megawatt-hours—enough to cover just 2–3% of Estonia's average hourly electricity consumption—this pilot project may seem modest in scale. Battery storage is becoming critical for modern electricity grids, especially as countries. . Estonia's energy sector is navigating a period of significant change in 2025, with key decisions raising concerns and opening new opportunities for renewable energy development.
