6 FAQs about [East Africa Outdoor Power BESS]
Will Kengen implement a 100MW Bess project in 2024?
KenGen has announced that it will implement an initial 100MW BESS project as part of the World Bank funded GREEN program in early 2024. The BESS project has been identified as a possible solution to increased proportion of intermittent energy to the Kenyan power system and energy curtailment during off peak hours.
Is there a market for utility-scale energy storage in Sub-Saharan Africa?
Regional Perspective: The market for utility-scale energy storage in Sub-Saharan Africa is currently small to very small. There are several projects announced or under tendering that will represent the first utility-scale battery energy storage projects (BESS) in the respective countries .
What is the Bess project?
The BESS project has been identified as a possible solution to increased proportion of intermittent energy to the Kenyan power system and energy curtailment during off peak hours. The BESS project will reduce the impact of intermittency on the grid and store power for use during peak hours.
When will Bess be deployed in South Africa?
The World Bank is also targeting the deployment of further BESS in South Africa, as well as in the West African Power Pool. These systems are likely to utilise Li-ion technology with deployment in the coming 5 to 10 years.
Is Bess a viable bridging technology for solar power off-grid sites?
The BESS technology, at current and forecasted costs are commercially viable for bridging the, more-or-less daily, variability and adverse weather events for solar energy to power off-grid sites at this scale. However, they are not yet cost effective at bridging the load supply for sustained periods (> 1 day) of limited solar resource availability.
Is Eskom deploying Bess in South Africa?
These include an 80 MW / 320 MWh BESS by Eskom in South Africa that is under tender , and the inclusion of BESS in some of the bids to Eskom’s Risk Mitigation IPP Procurement Programme. The World Bank is also targeting the deployment of further BESS in South Africa, as well as in the West African Power Pool.
