Fluence Lands 1 GWh German Battery Storage Deal with Vattenfall
FLNC is trading near its 52-week low of $6.61 (3.0% above the low).
Summary
Fluence Energy signed an agreement with Vattenfall to deliver a 254 MW / 1,000+ MWh battery storage project in Brunsbüttel, Germany, on a turnkey basis including long-term service. The project is Vattenfall's largest battery project to date and is scheduled to be operational by end of 2028. This award adds a major European utility-scale project to Fluence's backlog and reinforces its position in the German storage market, where it has delivered over 20 projects. The deal follows a difficult period for Fluence, including a 34% share drop in early October after production issues and a securities class action lawsuit. While the project is not expected to generate revenue until construction begins in 2027, the contract win provides a positive demand signal amid ongoing supply chain and guidance concerns.
