According to German magazine Der Spiegel, German power grid operators plan to build three giant batteries with a total discharge capacity of 900 megawatts from 2025 to ease grid congestion.

The largest 500MW project would be five times the size of Tesla’s Australian battery park in Adelaide, which was the world’s largest when it opened in 2017.

Energy industry insiders estimate the total cost of these German energy storage projects to be around €1 billion, according to Der Spiegel. The article says the batteries could increase the capacity of existing power lines, reduce the need for expensive and controversial grid extensions, and cut redispatch costs. The plans must first be approved by Germany's grid agency (BNetzA) and parliament. The grid operator's report warns that the technology is "not yet here" and that batteries of this size would be "very expensive."

The Grid Development Plan 2030 (NEP) by operators TenneT, TransnetBW, 50Hertz and Amprion also said Germany would need to build 1,600km of new transmission lines and renovate 2,900km by 2030.
