Root-Power has submitted planning applications for six battery energy storage projects across the UK.
The new market entrant’s portfolio now exceeds 2GW, with schemes ranging from 10MW to 100MW.
The six planning applications, submitted last month, are for 315MW of battery energy storage capacity.
The sites are located in North Yorkshire, Devon, Derbyshire, Bedfordshire, Glamorgan and Gloucestershire.
The largest of the submitted proposals, in Camblesforth, Selby, North Yorkshire, will provide 200MWh once complete.
The site is strategically placed close to the grid connection point near Drax Power Station on land which is naturally screened from view.
It will provide 13% habitat, 21% hedgerow and a 70% watercourse gains once complete.
The 50MW site in Hillcrest, Bedfordshire, is located less than 500 metres from the connection point and on a redundant strip of land adjacent to a transmission overhead line (OHL).
Root-Power’s expert in-house team are market-leaders in the industry with a comprehensive approach to battery energy storage systems (BESS), covering every stage from concept to completion.
In September, Root-Power announced it had submitted planning applications for 210MW of battery energy storage projects.
The five projects will be located in Reading, Manchester, Lancashire, Rotherham and Rochdale.
The renewable storage developer also announced construction had begun at its 11MW/22MWh BESS project in Coryton, Essex.
The site will go live in Q1 2025 and has been designed with a two-hour storage duration.
Root-Power managing director Neil Brooks said: “I’m proud to see another productive month from our team, this continued growth is testament to the skills and experience we’ve assembled across our business.
“Our development activities are unparalleled in the sector and will be fundamental to achieving our goal of establishing Root-Power as one of the largest owner-operators of energy storage systems in the UK.
“Earlier this month, Root-Power announced it had partnered with national law firm TLT to help secure options for lease, including for 17 upcoming battery storage projects across the UK.”
