Unlike traditional grid-following power electronics solutions, the grid-forming Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) delivered by Merus Power can independently maintain voltage and frequency, improve grid stiffness, and support the power system during disturbances. . Merus Power, together with Alpiq, has achieved a historic milestone for the Nordic energy market: the delivery of the region's first grid-forming battery energy storage system (BESS). The 30 MW / 36 MWh system, located in Valkeakoski, Finland, is not only a technological breakthrough but also a. . From advanced storage solutions to nuclear innovation, learn how technological breakthroughs are paving the way for a more flexible, efficient and sustainable energy future. The Nordic energy transition relies heavily on technological innovation, not just for clean generation but also for grid. . On 5 September 2025, BOS Power signed a supply agreement with HiTHIUM, a leading global company in energy storage technology, for the delivery of 3 GWh of battery energy storage systems (BESS) to projects across Denmark, Sweden, Finland, and Norway through 2027. As shown in the photo, CEO Ove Johan. . As the Nordic countries push forward with rapid electrification and record-breaking renewable energy development, a new structural necessity is emerging in the energy system: the ability to store and shift electricity over time. The technology leverages innovative materials and designs, leading to enhanced performance. The 30 MW / 36 MWh energy storage system commissioned in Valkeakoski, Finland, meets the requirements set by Fingrid, Finland's Transmission System. .
