About

Highview is a solutions-led energy infrastructure business. It has developed its LAES technology in the UK over the last 17 years to store renewable energy for up to several weeks and provide stability services to the National Grid. The company leverages a proprietary analytics platform to forecast future energy needs, orchestrates strategic capital to develop solutions and curates its technology to design, build and operate the assets to meet those requirements. The stability island and LAES/BESS facility at Hunterston will be the forerunner of Highview’s Millennium Series. It will deliver enough clean electricity to power around 650,000 homes for up to 12.5 hours, optimising Scotland’s plentiful offshore wind resources and in the process, release grid bottlenecks that currently curb renewable generation.
