Estonia is targeting an exit from electricity production from shale gas and a 40% renewable energy mix by 2030. The BESS is the first large-scale project in the country but smaller-scale projects are being supported through a
The Paldiski facility, with a capacity of 500 MW and 6 GWh, is Estonia''s first long-duration energy storage project. Zero Terrain projects can be developed as an entire infrastructure that enables the interaction of several sectors and thus strengthens companies'' competitiveness.
Estonia''s first large-scale energy storage project, Zero Terrain, has received an official permit and construction can go ahead. Developed by Energiasalv, the 550 MW underground pumped-hydro storage plant has minor environmental and land-use impact and can therefore be implemented in urban areas. The project enables the deployment of renewable energy generation in the

Energy storage is also vital for meeting Estonia's goal of sourcing all its electricity from renewable sources by 2030. The country's climate minister, Yoko Alender, emphasised the role of storage systems in this transition, saying they would help ensure a “clean, reliable and affordable energy future” for Estonia.
The project, aimed at preparing Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania to integrate their electricity networks with European ones by 2025 and thus shaking off their reliance on the Russian grid. Planned battery storage park of 200 MW and 400 MWh of storage capacity equivalent to 90 000 households' energy.
When countries are trying to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions for meeting the climate targets, the role of energy storage would be crucial. Lithium-ion batteries are also gaining space in Estonia to reduce dependence on other countries for power and to ensure a cleaner energy mix in line with its goal to build more battery parks.
