Providing Battery Energy Stores for the National Grid

We delivered tailored battery energy storage containers for high-voltage installations supporting National Grid connections, engineered to house critical battery systems and associated electrical infrastructure.

Our containerised approach provided secure, compliant enclosures that accommodated complex power requirements while ensuring efficient access and operational flexibility on site. The project highlights how purpose-built storage containers can meet demanding technical standards and accelerate deployment for large-scale energy programmes. 

The Customer

G2 Energy is a specialist integrator working across high-voltage electrical, civil engineering, and battery energy storage projects.

With more than 340 projects completed, representing over 2.1GW of energy connected to the National Grid, they support utilities and infrastructure developers delivering large-scale power systems.  

Green battery energy storage container with external ventilation louvres and access doors, secured with lifting slings and positioned on hardstanding, ready for delivery and installation as a containerised energy storage solution.

The Challenge and the Solution

We have worked closely with G2 Energy for a number of years, supplying a range of containerised solutions to house switchgear, control rooms, and battery energy storage systems at sites across the UK. Each project presents different technical and spatial requirements, making flexibility in both container type and internal layout essential. 

By utilising high cube containers to provide increased internal volume and tunnel containers to improve access and simplify equipment installation, we were able to tailor each container to its specific function. 

By also providing detailed CAD drawings, we enable our customers to visualise the container layout and equipment integration before fabrication begins. This early-stage collaboration ensures optimal use of space, clear access routes, and confidence that each container will perform as intended once deployed on site.
