Overview
Estonia is adding large-scale battery storage as a grid-stabilisation tool in the Baltics. The Hertz 1 project has entered operation/inauguration as the first of two equal-sized installations under the Baltic Storage Platform, positioned to support regional power-system stability following the Baltics’ synchronization with the European continental grid.

Recurring claims
- Hertz 1 (100 MW/200 MWh) in Kiisa, Estonia, began operation on Feb. 3.
- The project is the first of two 100 MW/200 MWh BESS installations under the Baltic Storage Platform JV involving Evecon, Corsica Sole and Mirova.
- Hertz 1 and Hertz 2 are described as designed to stabilise the regional power system after the Baltics’ synchronization with the European continental grid.
How sources frame it
- Pv Magazine International: neutral
- Energy-Storage.news: neutral
Two trade outlets report the same commissioning/inauguration; keep framing on Baltic grid stability and private capital participation.
