CCI acquires LC Energy Grid Services, strengthens presence in Dutch battery energy storage sector

Battery energy storage systems are essential for advancing decarbonization efforts across Europe and vital for the safe and reliable operation of power grids. As reliance on intermittent renewable energy sources grows, along with increased power demand from electrification, data centres and cloud computing, batteries will play a pivotal role in supporting the grid. S4 Energy aims to establish itself as a large-scale independent flexibility provider within the next three years, primarily focusing on the Netherlands, Germany and adjacent markets.

"This investment marks a transformative step for our platform, S4 Energy, and brings us closer to our objective of establishing a fully integrated, pan-European battery energy storage system platform. This transaction underscores our commitment to that vision and highlights the crucial role energy storage will play in facilitating decarbonization," said Mohit Singh, principal in CCI's European Principal Investments team.
