About Us
Developer and Operator of Battery Energy Storage assets in the UK
Our Story
We genuinely and passionately believe in the need for a rapid global energy transition to carbon neutral and carbon negative energy.
Our collective experience already spans more than 50 years in the UK renewables sector and Voltaria is here to actively negate the effects of climate change.
The RIC partners had been watching the flexible energy markets with interest for a number of years and in 2020 concluded that the market had developed sufficiently to provide a real opportunity to contribute to expanding the UK flexible energy sector.
As a result in 2021 Voltaria was founded. RIC found a like-minded approach in Nigel's vision for contributing to UK Net Zero and enthusiastically welcomed him to lead the journey.
We all believe that batteries are a crucial element of the UK renewables infrastructure mix and are required to facilitate much higher proportions of intermittent wind and solar electricity generation. This infrastructure is what will really enable the UK to achieve its Net Zero targets as soon as possible. Without flexible energy storage, no amount of intermittent renewable generation can satisfy the UK’s energy requirements.
We are committed to both developing viable battery projects and also to delivering and operating the batteries in the electricity market to maximise Voltaria’s energy transition impact.
