Germany: TotalEnergies Pursues Growth in Electricity by Launching Six New Battery Storage Projects
-
TotalEnergies is launching 221 MW of new battery energy storage systems developed by Kyon Energy in
Germany , where the Company already has 100 MW under construction. - Most of these batteries will be supplied by Saft, TotalEnergies’ affiliate specialized in advanced battery technology, particularly in renewables.
- TotalEnergies’ German project pipeline amounts to 13 GW1 of renewables and 2 GW of battery capacity, contributing to its strategy to develop an integrated portfolio.
These projects were developed by Kyon Energy, a TotalEnergies affiliate acquired in 2024, and most will use next-generation batteries supplied by Saft, a TotalEnergies affiliate and leader in advanced battery technology. Construction began at the end of 2024, and commissioning is planned for early 2026.
The launch of these projects marks a major milestone in TotalEnergies’ development of battery energy storage capacity in

These batteries round out TotalEnergies’ German electricity portfolio, which consists of:
- 7 GW1 of onshore wind and solar in development and 200 MW1 installed or under construction;
- 6.5 GW net of offshore wind in development;
- 2 GW of storage capacity in development and 321 MW under construction;
- 9 GW of electricity aggregation capacity managed by Quadra Energy;
- 6,900 developed and operated charge points, including 1,100 with high-power charging.
“We are delighted with this significant step forward in the development of our integrated power activities in
Energy storage, a key part of our integrated electricity strategy
Energy storage plays a key role in offsetting the intermittence of renewable power. Their development is therefore necessary to enable TotalEnergies to offer Clean Firm Power to its customers, i.e. the continuous, stable supply of renewable electricity. Batteries also help to maximize the value of TotalEnergies’ portfolio, especially through its trading activities. The Company leverages the expertise of its Saft affiliate for the supply of the best battery storage systems for its needs.
TotalEnergies and electricity
As part of its ambition to get to net zero by 2050, TotalEnergies is building a world class cost-competitive portfolio combining renewables (solar, onshore and offshore wind) and flexible assets (CCGT, storage) to deliver clean firm power to its customers. By the end of 2024, TotalEnergies’ gross renewable electricity generation installed capacity had reached 26 GW. TotalEnergies will continue to expand this business to reach 35 GW in 2025 and more than 100 TWh of net electricity production by 2030.
