Zenobē's 300MWh Battery Project: Powering Scotland's Green Energy Transition

Zenobē, a UK-based energy company, is constructing a massive 300MW/600MWh battery storage project, Blackhillock, in Scotland. This will be Scotland's largest battery storage facility to date, representing 32% of the country's current installed capacity. Funded by £101m in debt financing, the project will provide vital grid stability services, reducing CO2 emissions by approximately 2.6 million tonnes annually and saving consumers over £170 million over 15 years. Blackhillock will also have the capacity to power over 3.1 million homes for two hours. Zenobē is a leading player in the UK EV bus sector, operating over 2,000 electric vehicles globally.
