This crisis has amplified the need for robust, flexible energy systems, in order to maintain power to the country during such testing times. This episode is about batteries as a necessity. Built as critical infrastructure. Built fast. Built for stability. Built for a grid that has to keep working, no matter what.In this episode, Julian Jansen, Managing Director at Fluence, discusses the deployment of 500 MWh of large-scale battery energy storage systems across seven projects in Ukraine. He outlines the technical, logistical, and operational considerations involved in delivering energy infrastructure in a highly complex environment.• How the destruction of more than 80% of Ukraine’s thermal and hydro power plants has created an urgent need for reliable energy storage.• How battery storage projects in the region provide critical grid support even as the electricity system faces ongoing conflict.• What it took to shorten project delivery timelines from the industry-standard twelve months to just six.• How remote commissioning and training have been used to equip Ukrainian teams with the skills needed to install, operate, and maintain advanced energy systems.• Why cybersecurity has become a core component of national energy security.About our guestJulian Jansen is the Managing Director at Fluence.
