Envision Energy of China Secures Supply Cooperation for 442 MWh Energy Storage Project in Germany

en.Wedoany.com Reported - On November 9, China's Envision Energy and German energy storage developer ju:niz Energy confirmed the expansion of their cooperation on large-scale battery energy storage projects in Germany, with plans to deploy the eighth-generation battery energy storage system for the Smareg 13 energy storage project in Vöhringen, Bavaria. The project, also known as Vöhringen II, is planned to have an energy storage capacity of 442 MWh, adopting 4-hour energy storage technology and grid-forming control functions. ju:niz Energy will be responsible for development, financing, project implementation, and long-term operation, while Envision Energy will provide energy storage technology and project delivery support.

Smareg 13 will adopt Envision Energy's Gen 8 battery energy storage platform, equipped with grid-forming control functions to support grid voltage and frequency stability. The equipment solution also features a low-noise design adapted to the acoustic environment restrictions at the project site. Envision Energy will combine its energy storage equipment technology with local project delivery capabilities to serve the implementation of this large-scale energy storage facility.

The project site is adjacent to the Smareg 12 energy storage facility, which ju:niz Energy has already put into operation. The German partner will continue to be responsible for the new project from development and financing through construction implementation, and will undertake long-term operation and management after the project is commissioned. Envision Energy is responsible for the technology supply of the energy storage system and project delivery support, with both parties advancing the cooperation in accordance with the specific implementation requirements of the new project.

Smareg 13 is the third energy storage project cooperated between Envision Energy and ju:niz Energy. The two parties previously confirmed in July 2026 the construction of an 88.4 MWh energy storage project in Beinert, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, and cooperated on a 52.2 MWh project in Schöningen, Lower Saxony, with the first two totaling 140.6 MWh. With the addition of the 442 MWh project, the total scale of the three projects covered by the cooperation between the two parties is close to 600 MWh.

Henry Peng, Head of Europe and Latin America at Envision Energy, mentioned in this announcement that the two parties have already advanced the larger third project while the first two projects have not yet completed delivery. Vural Oezcan, Chief Operating Officer of ju:niz Energy, positioned Smareg 13 as a new addition to the company's large-scale energy storage project portfolio, emphasizing that the project adopts 4-hour energy storage technology and a grid-forming system solution.
