HyperStrong, a global leading provider of battery energy storage system (BESS) solutions, and Repono AB, a European developer of large-scale energy storage projects, formalized their strategic collaboration through a Partnering Agreement on 23 June, aimed at jointly advancing 1.4 GWh grid-scale energy storage projects across Europe by 2027.
Complementary expertise necessary for the quick and extensive deployment of power storage is brought together by the strategic collaboration. HyperStrong’s full-scope system integration capabilities, including BESS solution delivery and related lifecycle services, will complement Repono’s project development experience, which includes site development, permitting, and grid connectivity. The partnership supports Europe’s goal to develop local value chains and improve long-term industrial resilience while also demonstrating a shared commitment to quickening the energy transition.
“We are excited to deepen our partnership with Repono to accelerate the deployment of safe, high-performance, and cost-effective energy storage infrastructure in Europe,” stated Mr. Pingyang Wang, Senior Vice President of HyperStrong International and President of EMEA Region. “This collaboration reflects our long-term commitment to the European market and our shared ambition to enable grid stability and energy transition in the region.”
Mr. Karim Nils Grueber, CEO of Repono, stated: “HyperStrong brings strong technical know-how and proven experience in delivering integrated BESS solutions which is complementary to Repono’s extensive expertise in project development and more than 100,000 hours of BESS operations experience. We will lead with excellence in project design, permitting, and EPC coordination. Together, we aim to unlock the potential of grid-scale storage as a backbone for Europe’s energy transition.”
Mr. Greger Landén, CTO of Repono, also expressed: “We have together with HyperStrong spent the last six months evaluating their technology and approach to the energy storage area. We have not only found a partner that is truly focused on performance and safety that aligns well with our values, but also a great team willing to discuss and develop our common approach in line with our needs for enabling the green transition in the European market.”
Joint planning and project reviews, including technical and commercial alignment on designated pipeline projects, shall be conducted by both parties in accordance with the agreement. The partnership shows a common goal to use their complementary skills to their advantage in upcoming grid-scale initiatives.
