According to the request for proposals issued on July 30, the program calls for 16 standalone projects, each rated at 10MW/40MWh, totaling 160MW/640MWh of four-hour storage capacity. Selected developers will design, build, own, and operate the systems under 15-year agreements.
[pdf] The proposed project aims to install the first large-scale advanced battery energy storage system (BESS) in Mongolia to (i) supply clean peaking power that is charged by renewable energy electricity, which is otherwise curtailed; and (ii) provide regulation reserve to integrate additional renewable energy capacity in the transmission grid.
[pdf] In September last year, CGN and the Lao government signed an agreement to jointly build a comprehensive clean energy complex in the Lao provinces of Oudomxay, Phongsali, and Louang Namtha, including wind, hydrogen, and solar power generation and storage.
