Cities & municipalities
Battery storage as a building block of the municipal energy transition
For cities and municipalities
As a municipal decision-maker, you play a key role in driving the energy transition. Implementing a battery storage system strengthens your region’s renewable energy supply, contributes to national climate targets, and creates a sustainable source of revenue for your municipality.
Luxera stands for integrated solutions and long-term partnerships based on mutual trust and respect. From the start, we involve all relevant stakeholders, address key issues early on, and proactively manage potential challenges. With the support of our reliable financing partners, we ensure the successful realization of every project.
Benefits for your municipality
Trade Tax & Lease Income
90% of trade tax revenues remain in your municipality. Additional income can be generated through land leasing.
Customized Solutions
We ensure the success of your project by providing customized solutions tailored to your specific needs.
Local Energy, National Impact
Battery storage systems stabilize the grid, increase the use of renewables, and lower CO₂ emissions – both locally and across the country.
Flagship Project for the Energy Transition
Implementing a battery storage system demonstrates a strong signal of progress, enhances your community's innovative image, and sets an inspiring example for others to follow.

Battery storage systems play a key role in climate protection by enabling the integration of fluctuating renewable energy sources into the power grid. They store surplus electricity from solar and wind power during periods of low demand and release it when energy demand is high. This reduces reliance on fossil fuel power plants and significantly lowers CO₂ emissions.
You will benefit from additional income through business taxes and leases, a more stable and environmentally friendly energy supply, and a positive image as a pioneer of the energy transition.
Our battery storage systems are connected to the public power grid and are not designed to supply electricity directly to individual consumers. Instead, they support the grid by temporarily storing electricity and feeding it back in when required. This makes an important contribution to ensuring a reliable and cost-efficient long-term power supply.
Plots of land measuring approximately 800 m² or more, ideally located within a radius of approximately 1 km of a substation, are ideal for battery storage. Land of an agricultural, commercial or industrial nature is suitable.
The size of a battery storage project depends on the available grid connection capacity and local conditions.
Most of our projects have a capacity of 10–20 MW and a storage capacity of 20–40 MWh. This corresponds to the energy requirements of around 25,000 to 50,000 households for two hours. Larger systems achieve 60–80 MW of power and 120–140 MWh of capacity.The development process typically takes 20-24 months from initial planning to commissioning.
The environmental impact is minimal. We keep land use and soil disturbance to a minimum, and we work closely with local environmental authorities throughout the project. All materials are professionally recycled and reused at the end of the system’s service life. Additionally, using LFP battery technology reduces the need for hazardous substances, which further minimizes environmental risks.
Our battery storage systems are unobtrusive and designed to blend seamlessly into the surroundings. Through compensatory measures and the full integration of greenery around the site, the visual impact on the landscape is minimized.
During periods of low wind and sunlight, the battery storage system releases stored electricity to ensure a stable power supply. This stabilises the grid and prevents the need to activate additional fossil fuel power plants.
Once the operating period ends, the battery system is dismantled, and all materials are recycled. Upon request, the site can be restored to its original condition or repurposed for new projects. To ensure this, financial reserves are set aside from the beginning.
