Theddlethorpe Flexible Generation
Powering a secure and flexible energy future
Strengthening UK energy resilience
The UK is facing significant challenges in maintaining a secure, reliable and affordable electricity system. As the electricity system becomes more reliant on intermittent renewables, maintaining secure and reliable power during periods of peak demand or low generation is increasingly critical.
At the same time, growing electricity demand from homes, businesses and industry is placing greater pressure on the grid, requiring new flexible generation capacity to support system resilience and energy security.
Theddlethorpe is being developed to respond to this challenge
Flexible power generation and large-scale battery storage will support grid stability and strengthen national energy security, helping to provide reliable power when it is needed most and supporting the transition to a lower-carbon electricity system.
Together, these technologies make effective use of the site's unique characteristics, delivering nationally important infrastructure that supports a secure, resilient and flexible energy system for the UK.
Grid-scale energy storage & generation technologies
We build, own and operate flexible generation, battery storage, pumped hydro and green hydrogen projects across the country, ensuring that the UK has clean, secure and affordable electricity whatever the weather.
These assets will help the UK build more renewable energy, more quickly, by providing the flexible capacity needed to balance the future grid. In turn, this technology will lower carbon emissions and deliver best value for energy users.
