Swedish Electricity Storage and Balancing Centre

Making the transition to a low-carbon emission future a reality requires the development of new solutions for storage and system flexibility, to guarantee continuous electric power balancing.

Enabling a 100% renewable energy system

Our vision is that the future energy system will be sustainable, and the electric power system will play a critical role for the realization of the 100% renewable-based society, where the electric power system shall not be a limiting factor for society progress but available, secure and reliable at any place, at any scale, and at any time.
