LONDON, July 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Envision Energy, a
global leader in renewable energy solutions, is delighted to
announce their latest Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project
with Field, a renewable energy infrastructure business operating in
the UK and EU.
Envision Energy will supply Field Whitebirk, a consented 50 MWh
battery storage project located in Blackburn, England, with the hardware and
equipment required to build the battery storage system onsite. The
business secured an agreement with Field following a competitive
tender process which aimed to identify a scalable, strategic

Field more broadly and make a significant contribution to the
global energy transition."
Ben Saward, Vice President for
Supply Chain and Procurement at Field, said : "Envision
Energy's product and expertise helped them progress swiftly through
a thorough, competitive tender process and we're pleased to be
working with them on Field Whitebirk. When operational, the site
will join our network of UK battery storage sites in balancing
increasingly intermittent energy supplies across the grid to
bolster energy security, bring down costs to consumers and
decarbonise the power sector by 2030."
This initiative not only underscores Envision Energy's expertise
