Oslo grid-connected energy storage project

The future grid in Greater Oslo

The grid voltage is today at 300 kilovolt (kV). Statnett will now replace the existing lines and substations, so the grid can be upgraded to a higher voltage (420kV). - With higher voltage the grid can transfer more electricity.

Oslo grid-connected energy storage project

4 FAQs about [Oslo grid-connected energy storage project]

Is there a power grid in Oslo?

Oslo does not have a power grid. However, west of Oslo, there is a small single-phase AC power grid operated with 16.7 Hz frequency for power supply of electric railways.

Does Oslo need better energy management?

To continue the electrification of these sectors, Oslo needs better energy planning and management to ensure that the city has sufficient grid capacity and alternative energy sources to fulfil the transition. Energy management is needed at both the micro level – construction site or charging station – and the macro level – city and region.

Can Oslo achieve a net zero transition by 2030?

Electricity grid performance and energy management is key for Oslo to achieve its net zero transition by 2030. This pilot will focus on supporting emissions-free energy supply to construction machinery and Heavy-Duty Vehicles (HDVs), sectors that are expected to be challenging to electrify.

What is Oslo's procurement strategy?

Oslo’s procurement strategy as a tool to scale up emissions-free solutions that can serve as a cost-effective template for replication. The procurement strategy has been highly successful in ensuring the development and implementation of electric solutions at construction sites for commercial transport and beyond.
