Image: Fluence. A 10MW / 20MWh battery energy storage project in Belgium has achieved financial close and is expected to begin construction shortly, the consortium behind the project has said. The lithium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) will be built in the town of Bastogne in Belgium’s southern Wallonia region.
Battery storage projects in Belgium have taken off quicker than in the rest of mainland Europe thanks to more storage-friendly market rules. The market has some strong drivers for storage including a lack of grid flexibility and good interconnection with other markets.
Technology provider Fluence will supply, install and maintain the energy storage system while Centrica Business Solutions Belgium will dispatch and trade the battery’s capabilities and capacity. At two hours’ duration, the system is longer duration than many of the large-scale projects seen to date using lithium-ion batteries in Europe.
In a June interview with Energy-Storage.news Belgium was identified as one of Europe’s most attractive potential markets for energy storage, according to Michael Salomon, CEO of energy storage consultancy firm Clean Horizon. The Estor-Lux 10MW / 20MWh system is thought to be the largest in the country.

Four Rules to Prolong Lithium Battery Life. All modern lithium batteries contain a battery management system or BMS that monitors the internal battery cell voltages, temperature and charge rates. The BMS also disconnects the battery if it detects a problem or voltage spike. However, the BMS can only do so much, so these four tips will help users extend battery life, …

Based on Belgian national statistics, the total mileage is 133,668 km (FEBIAC 2020), leading to a total delivered energy over the first life of 23,392 kWh. The battery''s cycle life is calculated thanks to the cell datasheet (Lima 2022), and the
Lithium batteries can take close to the full depth of discharge (90% DOD) safely, unlike lead acid. But, it''s best to avoid completely draining the battery to prolong its life. Avoiding this will increase the longevity of a lithium battery. Again a BMS, or battery management system, helps protect a LiFePO4 battery from: Overcharging,
