Taiwan’s Largest Government Energy Storage System Supplied by Fluence in Partnership with TECO Starts Operation

Energy, Inc., a leading global provider of energy storage products, services, and optimization software for renewables and storage, announced that the 60 MW / 80 MWh Longtan battery-based energy storage system for Taiwan Power Company (Taipower) has started operation. Located at the Taoyuan Longtan ultra-high voltage substation, the energy storage system was supplied by Fluence in partnership with TECO Electric & Machinery Co. (TECO).

The Longtan energy storage system is currently Taipower’s largest storage project in Taiwan, with an installed capacity equivalent to the average daily electricity consumption of nearly 8,000 households. The project accounts for 37.5 percent of Taipower’s storage capacity and serves as a significant milestone for Taiwan’s net-zero transformation.
