Theddlethorpe Flexible Generation
A flexible generation project utilising natural gas with carbon capture or hydrogen generation
The opportunity
A flexible generation and battery energy storage project utilising natural gas or hydrogen generation, strategically positioned at Theddlethorpe in Lincolnshire.
The Theddlethorpe Flexible Generation facility will be made up of turbines to generate electricity alongside battery storage. The turbines could be fuelled by natural gas from National Gas' adjoining network, and use carbon capture storage, or made up of turbines fuelled by hydrogen. The project is at a very early stage and we are currently considering the form the development can take and work necessary to prepare a future application for development consent.

Technology
Flexible generation provides vital energy security to the electricity network
Flexible generation provided by reciprocating engines is designed to ramp up from a standstill to full capacity within a matter of minutes (typically less than 10 minutes) and complement the fast-acting services of batteries. With the ability to sustain delivery over long periods without the risk of running out of stored energy, Flexible generation provides vital security to the UK power system, whether that be in response to a shortage in generation or an increase in overall demand.

Technology
Battery storage is a front line of defence for balancing the electricity network
Batteries perform two functions for the electricity network. They use electricity to charge when there is surplus energy or low demand and they also transfer energy back to the grid in times of high demand. As renewable energy generation increases, BESS are becoming an increasingly important tool to provide services to the grid and to large scale electricity users.

About us
Who is Statera?
Statera is a UK-based energy company that develops, owns and operates flexible generation, battery storage, pumped hydro and green hydrogen projects which will all provide critical grid balancing support in a future renewables-led system.
These assets will help the UK build more renewable energy, more quickly, by providing the flexible capacity needed to balance the future grid during periods of extended shortfalls and excesses in renewable generation, due to the variability of wind and solar output. In turn, this technology will lower carbon emissions and deliver best value for energy users.
