				    FES systems store kinetic energy by spinning a rotor in a low-friction enclosure, and are used mainly for grid management rather than long-term energy storage. 22 The rotor changes speed
				    The cost of a 1 MW battery storage system is influenced by a variety of factors, including battery technology, system size, and installation costs. While it''s difficult to provide an exact price,
				    Finland''s PV market got its first beginning by focusing on small off-grid systems, and only began moving towards medium-scale grid-connected PV systems around 2010.
				    For a 2MW (2,000 kilowatts) battery storage system, if we assume an average battery cell cost of $0.4 per watt-hour, the cost of the battery alone would be 2,000,000 * $0.4

Currently, utility-scale energy storage technologies that have been commissioned in Finland are limited to BESS (lithium-ion batteries) and TES, mainly TTES and Cavern Thermal Energy Storages (CTES) connected to DH systems.
There are hundreds of electricity storage projects underway in various parts of Finland. Individual electricity storage facilities can range in size from tens to hundreds of megawatts, with a power requirement equivalent to the electricity consumption of a medium-sized city.
The capacity fee for grid energy storages is a component similar to the capacity fee for power plants, and it is billed to the electricity storage facility for the sum of the rated capacity of its consumption and production power. For example, a 20 MW electricity storage facility is charged a capacity fee based on its 40 MW capacity.
In the future, electricity storage facilities with a nominal capacity of more than 30 MW, which are to be connected directly to the Fingrid network, must be connected to the strongest nodes of the main grid, 400+110 kV or 400 kV substations.
The complexity of grid connection requirements varies significantly based on location and local regulations, with costs ranging from €50,000 to €200,000 per MW of capacity. System integration expenses cover the sophisticated control systems, energy management software, and monitoring equipment essential for optimal battery performance.
Changes to the main grid fees for electricity storage facilities Unlike other network users, electricity storage facilities have been invoiced only for energy taken from the grid and supplied to the grid as part of their main grid service fees.
