Maxsolar and Sungrow partner on two grid-supporting battery storage projects in Bavaria totaling 125 MWh
Type: Supply Agreement · Technology: Storage · Country: Germany · Capacity: 125 MWh · Announced: 2026-06-30
Maxsolar, a German renewable energy developer, partnered with Sungrow to supply grid-supporting battery storage systems for two projects in Bavaria. The first project in Wutzldorf is a five-hour, 25 MWh system connected to the Bayernwerk distribution network, with Sungrow delivering its PowerTitan 2.0 BESS by June 30, 2026. The system will optimize charging and discharging schedules to relieve pressure on the local distribution grid during high solar generation periods. The second project in Winterschneidbach is a larger 100 MWh grid-supporting battery system, with Sungrow scheduled to deliver equipment by November 2026. Both projects are designed as five-hour battery systems and will serve as pilots to demonstrate battery storage's role in improving grid stability, flexibility, and renewable energy integration. The Wutzldorf project represents a key step in Maxsolar's regional BESS cluster strategy, while the Winterschneidbach installation will showcase the broader role of grid-supporting battery storage beyond a single site.
