Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) plant will provide Load Shifting as main application while providing Black start, Frequency regulation and voltage support application through a selectable part of the system’s total capacity for the network at their respective Point of Interconnection (POI). Following are the project locations:
Last week, Prince Abdulaziz revealed that the Kingdom is seeking to establish significant battery energy storage capacity. It is part of the plan to strengthen and expand its electricity infrastructure. It also reduces the nation’s reliance on fossil fuels. “We have already signed 26GWh of batteries and by 2030, we will be doing 48GWh,” he said.
Speaking in 2021, the Saudi government expects to spend $293 billion on power and energy projects by then. The biggest share of this revenue is expected to be spent on transmission upgrades and renewable energy. The implementation of the world’s largest battery energy system (BESS) project progresses as Saudi Arabia begins qualification tenders.
Tata group company, Agratas Energy Storage Solutions is setting up a 20 GWh lithium battery cell factory in Gujarat, where it has already been allotted 22.50 lakh sq m of land in Sanand.
Pre-engineered building solutions provider, Interarch Building Products is bidding for Tata group’s lithium battery plant that is coming up in Gujarat , a senior official said.
