The project features a 50MW/200MWh battery storage system using lithium iron phosphate (LFP) technology. Here's a breakdown of its capabilities: Capacity: Powers 16,000 homes for 4 hours Response Time: <2 milliseconds for grid frequency regulation Efficiency: 92% round-trip energy. The planned battery storage infrastructure, to be installed between 2026 and 2030, will have a total capacity of 160 megawatts with the capability to store renewable energy for 2-3 hours, Papanastasiou told the House Energy Committee. The Cyprus Energy Regulatory Authority (CERA) has approved the. By June 2026 the latest, the distributed energy storage system with a total capacity of 120 MW, which is currently being implemented, will be operational and will function with full transparency on the basis of the “Policy for Management and Participation in the Competitive Electricity Market,”.
