SAE Renewables welcomes politicians to Uskmouth Sustainable Energy Park

SAE Renewables Limited (LON:SAE) was delighted on Friday 1 November 2024, to welcome Jessica Morden, the Member of Parliament for Newport East, John Griffiths, the Member of the Senedd for Newport East, and Dimitri Batrouni, the Leader of Newport City Council, to the Uskmouth site. SAE Chairman, Duncan Black, and CEO, Graham Reid, along with senior SAE team members, welcomed the politicians to the Uskmouth Sustainable Energy Park.

SAE has been transforming the Uskmouth site. Once home to a coal fired power station, SAE has utilised the existing infrastructure, land and grid connection to turn it into one of the largest Battery Storage sites in the UK. With one project already in construction and the next due to start construction next year, SAE is making rapid progress in the delivery of over 2GWh of Battery Storage projects, with the potential to expand to over 3.5GWh in the future with longer duration batteries in the future.
