Case study

Hyde Battery Energy Storage Project

Location: Hyde, West of Manchester, within the Electricity North West (ENW) region

Scale: 42MW/104MWh

Project status: operational

The challenge

The Hyde project presented a complex design challenge, integrating battery energy storage system (BESS) assets within a compact, hilly site bordered by a railway bridge and motorway. Supplied by Canadian Solar, these assets have now been energised and have been operating successfully since March 2025.
