Sri Lanka has started building its largest renewable project, a $140 million, 100 MW solar park with 12 MWh of storage. It is expected to annually generate 219 GWh and cut $69.7 million in diesel imports by 2027. Image: President of Sri Lanka's Media Divison
[pdf] Over the next 24 months, the studies will prepare the ground to upgrade two of the plant’s six units to variable-speed turbines, improving operational efficiency, while also designing a hybridisation system to optimise the integration of a large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) of up to 80 MW/160 MWh.
[pdf] Morocco is preparing to launch a massive foray into clean energy with its ambitious 1.6 GW BESS projects. The National Office for Electricity and Drinking Water (ONEE) is expected to invite tenders for battery energy storage systems (BESS) totaling nearly 1,600MW.
