Winning bidders included a 49MW battery storage facility — one of the biggest of its kind in the world — to be built by Centrica, the UK energy group, at a former coal and gas-fired power station at Roosecote near Barrow in Cumbria. Centrica also won backing for a new 370MW combined cycle gas turbine at King’s Lynn in Norfolk.
