French power company Edison has launched its first solar-linked storage project with a 3 kW storage system at its 500 MW Altomonte solar plant in Calabria . Edison said the project, for which French firm Engie’s Edison subsidiary provided the battery, is intended to make up for the variability of renewable power generation. “Battery performance is monitored in real time at Edison’s research, development and innovation laboratories, in order to optimize its operating processes.” It would also let the company test the system for other grid projects, said Edison .
