About the project
Energy storage is expected to play a key role in the electricity system of the future, which is why OX2 has started developing battery storage projects (Battery Energy Storage System, BESS) in parallel with our operations in wind and solar power. Project "Bredhälla BESS" is a battery storage facility with a capacity of approximately 40 MW and is located near two of OX2’s ongoing wind power projects.
The project is located in Uppvidinge municipality, approximately 7.5 km south of Åseda in the southeast of Sweden, and directly adjacent to E.ON's substation. The project will deliver ancillary services to Svenska Kraftnät, the state-owned transmission system operator, and thus help stabilize the electricity grid. By storing electricity (arbitrage) when there is a surplus and selling when there is a shortage of electricity in the grid, the project contributes to increased security in the electricity supply in southern Sweden.

Sustainability
Sustainability
OX2 and our suppliers are guests in the local communities. For us, is extremely important to create dialogue with and show respect for the people who live and work in the local area. This includes transparent communication, creating local jobs, business sector development or financial grants through community funds or property tax, depending on the market and conditions in the area.
The expansion of renewable energy should not come at the expense of nature and it is not enough for us to mitigate climate change. We have long worked to minimize our negative impact on nature and are now taking decisive action towards our goal of nature-positive wind and solar farms by 2030.
Our projects are sustainable by design, from early planning to construction and management.
