At the end of July 2021, the Government of the Republic of Lithuania appointed Energy cells, a company of the EPSO-G Group, as the operator of the instantaneous isolated operation electricity reserve for Lithuania’s electricity storage facilities and entrusted it with the management of the electricity storage facilities system.
The Government of the Republic of Lithuania has appointed Energy cells as the operator of storage facilities that will provide Lithuania with an instantaneous electricity reserve. Energy cells signed a contract with the winning consortium of Siemens Energy and Fluence. The start of the design works for the energy storage facilities system.
Lithuania’s system of electricity storage facilities is essential to ensure the security of Lithuania’s energy system and its ability to operate in isolated mode.
The energy storage system, which will provide Lithuania with an instantaneous isolated operation electricity reserve until synchronisation with the continental European networks (CEN), will be used after synchronisation for the integration of energy produced from renewable sources.
Testing has started on four battery storage projects in Lithuania totalling 200MW/200MWh provided by system integrator Fluence, with a view to turning the projects online in a few months. Construction began on the four projects connected to substations in Šiauliai, Alytus, Utena and Vilnius in June last year, as reported by Energy-Storage.news.
They will enable the country’s electricity grid to run in islanded mode as well as synchronise with the EU grid as Lithuania seeks to disconnect from the Russian energy system, a move which pre-dates the latter’s invasion of Ukraine in early 2022.
Planning and Dispatching of Distributed Energy Storage
As we can see, the framework mainly includes four main parts: the energy storage system, distributed clean energy, distribution networks, and the distribution network load. Due to the high population and building density in urban areas, distributed photovoltaic power generation is the main source of clean energy, with little attention given to the integration of …

An AC-Feasible Linear Model in Distribution Networks With Energy Storage
With the increasing deployment of distributed energy resources (DERs), dispatching DERs subject to operational constraints in distribution networks draws much attention. One challenge is the non-convexities in 1) system-wide AC power flow constraints and 2) the individual complementarity constraint of energy storage. To resolve this challenge, this paper studies an …
