en.Wedoany.com Reported - SPIE Belgium is carrying out the electrical integration works for a battery storage park located in Auvelais, Belgium. The storage park is designed to store electricity, particularly from renewable sources, storing it during periods of surplus generation and feeding it back into the grid during peak consumption, thereby supporting grid flexibility and facilitating the integration of intermittent generation.

The site has a capacity of approximately 304 MWh and can inject up to 76 MVA of power into the 150 kV high-voltage grid for a duration of four hours. The facility is equipped with 82 Megapack-type battery containers and an 82 MVA power transformer, capable of supplying 30,000 to 40,000 households for four hours or fully charging 4,000 to 5,000 electric vehicles.

SPIE Belgium's scope of work includes the construction of a 150 kV substation, installation and connection of the energy storage system, and implementation of all equipment required to inject energy into the grid. Civil works have commenced and will continue until summer 2026, followed by installation and connection, with contractual commissioning scheduled for the end of January 2027. The site is expected to require approximately 14,000 man-hours, with up to 20 technicians mobilized on-site during peak periods.
