As energy operators seek new ways to maintain resilience in increasingly inverter‑dominated grids, projects like Blackhillock demonstrate how grid‑forming capabilities are now being deployed at scale. Now live in Scotland, the Blackhillock battery energy storage system (200MW/400MWh) is helping grid operators manage balancing, stability and network constraints as renewable capacity grows. Developed by Zenobē and powered by Wärtsilä Energy Storage, it’s the largest battery energy storage site currently operating in Europe and the first delivered under the NOA Stability Pathfinder programme. Designed to provide critical services such as true synthetic inertia and short‑circuit support, Blackhillock shows how grid‑scale storage can replace traditional stability services as fossil generation retires. With Wärtsilä’s GEMS Digital Energy Platform, the system can be remotely monitored and optimised, supporting multiple services and adapting to changing grid needs over time. This is what flexibility at scale looks like! Read on: https://lnkd.in/gkmV9X24 Matthew Lynas via ESS News #Scotland #EnergyStorage #EnergyTransition #GridStability #Innovation

Yesterday, we proudly celebrated five years of 𝗪𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 in Gothenburg, an initiative Wärtsilä Sweden has helped grow into a strong platform for dialogue and progress. Bringing together 150 participants to mark the IMO’s International Day for Women in Maritime, the event highlighted our shared commitment to advancing #GenderEquality across the maritime sector. ⚓ A special moment for Wärtsilä was seeing Selina Justen, Vice President, Human Resources and Internal Communications, contribute to the discussion under the theme “From Policy to Practice.” Thank you to Northern Offshore Services and all organisers, sponsors, and partners who made this milestone event possible! 💙 #WomenInMaritime #DiversityAndInclusion #FuelYourPower

The world's largest electrification project at sea Delivering large-scale electric ferry operations takes more than ambition. It takes expertise, proven technology and close collaboration across the entire maritime value chain. 🤝 Together with Incat Tasmania and Molslinjen, we're building three 129‑metre high-speed electric ferries that are under construction in Tasmania. The project demonstrates what is possible when strong partnerships and system‑level thinking come together. At the heart of the project are Wärtsilä’s advanced integrated electric propulsion systems, designed to deliver both zero-emission operations and high performance. Once delivered, these vessels will become the largest electric ferries operating in Europe. ⚡️ Watch the video to see how collaboration and technology are shaping the future of sustainable transportation. 🎥 #MaritimeInnovation #SustainableShipping #Innovation

Working in demanding production environments should never mean compromising on safety. The use of 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 ensures that our colleagues can carry out their work safely when working on top of engines. 👷 An internal project has improved the use of safety harnesses in situations with a risk of falling. Our goal is simple: every employee returns home healthy every day, which is why we value the correct use of harnesses and continuously develop the equipment. New anchor points and attachment systems have been installed, training has been held, and user feedback has guided further development. ⚙️ Alongside harness solutions, 𝗲𝘅𝗼𝘀𝗸𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗶𝗱𝘀 are used in our Sustainable Technology Hub production to support ergonomics and work ability. They help with lifting heavy parts and maintaining better working postures, supporting assemblers in physically demanding tasks. #SafetyAtWork #OccupationalSafety #Ergonomics
