Equipment supplier Wärtsilä confirms Coventry is among six operational EDF batteries and identifies its equipment as 50 MW / 100 MWh. COVNB-1 is the sole mapped unit. This begins after the dated operating confirmation, not an inferred December 2023 commissioning day. The 50.4 MW registry reference remains separate.

Operator capacity source

Whole-site registered total: 50.4 MW, including retired units.

Registered capacity is the value retained in the committed BM-unit source snapshot. “Not retained” means the registry no longer supplied a positive figure; it does not mean the unit historically had no capacity. If a unit with a retirement event publishes a non-zero live declaration, the live declaration keeps it in the operating fleet pending review.
