Hannes Snellman advised Exilion, a leading Finnish renewable energy investor, on its over EUR 8 million investment into a 20 MW / 41 MWh battery energy storage solution, comprising the BESS and a hybrid controller for the BESS and the co-located Varevaara wind farm in Tervola. Once operational in 2027, the facility will provide critical balancing capacity to the electricity market and enhance power system stability, with a hybrid power plant controller enabling the BESS and the wind farm to operate as a single integrated system, further optimising the operation of the wind farm within the grid. Our team advised on the negotiation of construction, supply, and long-term services contracts with Merus Power.

Hannes Snellman’s team included Maria Landtman and Emmi Malm.
