Peel NRE has worked with UK Power Reserve Ltd, a leading energy provider, to build a number of reserve power generation and storage facilities across the country to support the National Grid at times when demand is likely to exceed supply.

We provided land for these one-acre sites and UK Power Reserve has installed the technology which has a standby supply of approximately 20MW per location.

We helped UK Power Reserve to find the most suitable sites for their power stations to be developed quickly and with cost effective utility connections. As our partnership grew, we also identified and purchased third party sites for UK Power Reserve to develop more energy facilities.

Today, there are 11 operational sites in the UK with possibilities for expansion as market conditions allow.

Developments like this are supporting the economy to move away from fossil-based fuels towards a largely renewable electricity supply and we’re working with other operators to build similar sites.
