Germany’s €835 Million Financing Supports Expansion of Battery Storage Sites

On 4 November 2026, energy storage operator Return secured €835 million in portfolio financing to expand battery storage projects across Germany. The initial financing covers three sites with a combined capacity of 117 MW, while the company aims to install at least 1 GW annually from 2027. The programme is expected to require additional land, construction and grid-connection infrastructure. Property developers, industrial landowners, construction contractors and infrastructure investors can explore opportunities around energy-storage sites. HPC can support site-related research, supplier introductions and project partnership development.
