EBRD finances the largest battery energy storage
EBRD financing of US$ 229.4 million supports major renewable energy project in Uzbekistan Funds to facilitate construction of a battery
This year has seen battery storage announcements from the Central Asian nation coming thick and fast. Saudi Arabian developer ACWA Power has signed a binding implementation agreement with the Ministry of Energy (MoE) of Uzbekistan to develop up to 2 GWh of standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) capacity across the country.
TASHKENT, � The World Bank Group, Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company PJSC (Masdar), and the Government of Uzbekistan have signed a financial package to fund a 250-megawatt (MW) solar photovoltaic plant with a 63-MW battery energy storage system (BESS).
ACWA Power is already the largest investor in Uzbekistan's energy sector, with over 13 GW of projects under development. “Today, we reiterate our support for the country's energy transition through advanced battery storage solutions.
“This project will enhance Uzbekistan's energy security through the use of innovative solutions and technologies,” noted Marco Mantovanelli, World Bank Country Manager for Uzbekistan.
The project company is committed to selling electricity to the state-owned National Electric Grid of Uzbekistan JSC under a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement for the project, including a 10-year operating term for the BESS component, signed by these two entities.
By 2030, Uzbekistan is aiming to install 25 GW of renewables and generate 40% of its electricity from renewable energy sources. Marija has years of experience in a news agency environment and writing for print and online publications.
