The tender underpins Enel’s growth plans, enabling further renewable expansion and long-term portfolio optimisation in the region.
Copenhagen Energy Sells Stake in Danish BESS Project, Advances Poland Expansion
Copenhagen Energy has sold part of its Danish battery energy storage system (BESS) project, while simultaneously advancing its development activities in Poland, highlighting active portfolio optimisation. The projects leverage advanced battery storage technology to provide grid balancing, flexibility, and renewable integration services. Innovation is reflected in a phased investment and asset-rotation approach that recycles capital into new markets. From an investment perspective, the partial divestment unlocks capital and de-risks the portfolio, supporting reinvestment in growth opportunities. Consumer benefits include improved grid stability and more efficient use of renewable electricity. Strategically, the move aligns with Copenhagen Energy’s focus on scaling flexible energy assets across Northern and Central Europe. The transaction underpins clear growth plans, strengthening the company’s presence in Poland while maintaining momentum in the fast-growing European energy storage sector.
