The UK port of Portsmouth now has a fully operational solar and battery system. The project has been completed with an upgraded connection to the national grid to allow the full potential of the 1.2-megawatt peak system to be available. The system consists of 2660 solar panels and can generate 35 per cent of required port electricity. The solar system has an onsite battery with a capacity of 1.3 megawatt hours that captures renewable energy and redirects it to the port’s buildings.
