LG Energy secures Polish ESS deal

Green Forum
LG Energy Solution has been chosen as a key partner for a large-scale energy storage system (ESS) project led by Poland's state-owned utility, PGE.

The company announced that it signed a battery supply agreement with PGE on March 24. Under this deal, LG Energy Solution will begin delivering lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries for ESS starting in 2026, manufactured at its Wroclaw facility in Poland. The contract is worth several trillion Korean won and marks the company's first supply of Europe-manufactured LFP batteries dedicated to ESS applications.

To ensure maximum efficiency of the ESS system, LG Energy Solution is offering a turnkey solution, developed in partnership with European collaborators. The package includes containerized battery units and full EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) services.

PGE's project involves building a 1GWh ESS facility in the Żarnowiec area of northern Poland, with the goal of beginning commercial operations in 2027. The initiative is designed to improve grid stability and support the expansion of renewable energy sources in the region.
