Swiss-based energy company MET Group has officially inaugurated Hungary's largest standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) at its Dunamenti Power Station in Százhalombatta, located close to Budapest. The new 40 MW / 80 MWh system, installed at the Dunamenti gas power plant near Budapest, is the biggest of its kind in the country. . With the announcement of the results of the public tender, the MVM Group 's industrial-scale battery construction plan that had been announced in 2020, has taken a major step forward. The investment will cost just over EUR 5 million and the site is in Litér (western Hungary, near Veszprém). Hungarian authorities launched the tender for grid-scale batteries on January 15 and received offers until February 5.
