One of UK’s largest battery energy storage projects has changed hands and will come online next year as part of a low carbon energy park in Greater Manchester. UK-based developer Statera Energy has acquired a 680 MW/1360 MWh battery energy storage project in Greater Manchester from Carlton Power.
The company has had a smaller-scale 5MW/15MWh project operational, also in Manchester, since 2018. It first revealed plans for a large-scale project in Carrington in 2019 which the then-CEO told Energy-Storage.news would start construction the following year.
This battery project secured debt financing in November 2024 and only a month later a ten-year voltage services contract in a tender run by the National Energy System Operator (NESO). Statera’s latest project has already been approved by Trafford Council and is its largest consented battery storage project to date.
Statera’s latest project has already been approved by Trafford Council and is its largest consented battery storage project to date. The company was founded in 2016 and has over 1 GW of UK projects operational or in construction, and as of the latest announcement – a consented battery storage pipeline of 1370 MW.
Keith Clarke, Carlton Power’s CEO, said: “Our agreement with Statera Energy is a further step in the development of the Trafford Low Carbon Energy Park.
The global commercial and industrial solar energy storage battery market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with demand increasing by over 400% in the past three years. Large-scale battery storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability goals and federal investment tax credits that reduce total system costs by 30-35%. Europe follows with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets are adopting commercial storage for peak shaving and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 3-6 years. Modern industrial installations now feature integrated systems with 50kWh to multi-megawatt capacity at costs below $500/kWh for complete energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar energy storage battery performance while reducing costs for commercial applications. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal performance with 50% less energy loss, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $1,000/kW to $550/kW since 2022. Smart integration features now allow industrial systems to operate as virtual power plants, increasing business savings by 40% through time-of-use optimization and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage protection and thermal management systems have reduced insurance premiums by 30% for commercial storage installations. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple battery additions at just $450/kWh for incremental storage. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial projects typically achieving payback in 4-7 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (50-100kWh) starting at $25,000 and premium systems (200-500kWh) from $100,000, with flexible financing options available for businesses.
