Alcemi Secures Planning Permission for 300 MW BESS Project

Alcemi, an energy storage developer,has received planning permission for their 300 MW Kintore BESS in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.

The Kintore BESS is located on a brownfield site on the edge of the existing Midmill Business Park, approximately 1.5 km to the south of Kintore and 2.8 km to the west of the Kintore substation.

Working in close collaboration with local authorities and stakeholders, the project has undergone extensive environmental assessments to ensure it meets the highest safety and sustainability standards. Following construction, measures will be taken to boost biodiversity and the site will be screened with native planting.

The project will play a critical role in enabling the energy transition by allowing energy produced by intermittent renewable technologies during periods of low demand or favorable generation conditions to be imported and stored, and subsequently exported back onto the grid during times of peak demand.

The Kintore BESS will continue to progress in collaboration with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), through their Flagship Funds, as part of the ongoing partnership that will see 4 GW of energy storage deployed across the UK at key locations.

James Forster, Chief Development Director of Alcemi, said, “We are thrilled to maintain our 100% track record of achieving planning permission for our BESS projects, bringing our total to 2.3 GW of consented schemes across the UK. This milestone is a testament to the hard work of our team and the vital need for BESS in the energy transition.”
