6 FAQs about [Saudi Arabia standalone energy storage systems]
Which energy storage solutions will be the leading energy storage solution in MENA?
Electrochemical storage (batteries) will be the leading energy storage solution in MENA in the short to medium terms, led by sodium-sulfur (NaS) and lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries.
How much does a solar PV project cost in Saudi Arabia?
In Saudi Arabia, each of the two awarded rounds of the Renewable Energy Project Development Ofice (REPDO) auctions, totaling 2.17 GW, in addition to the PIF-led projects, has received record-low prices. The 300 MW Sakkaka solar PV project, the first project under REPDO, set a record tarif of 1.34 USD cents/kWh in February 2018.
Should ESS be used in a solar auction?
Although some auctions are focused on ESS or solar plus storage, deployment targets emphasize only renewable energy generation and do not account for energy storage systems. Moreover, some regulations may be unfavorable to the deployment of ESS, such as the net-metering scheme on a flat tarif.
What is an energy storage system?
An energy storage system is charged from the grid or by on-site generation to be used at a later time to take advantage of price diferentials. Energy storage is used instead of upgrading the transmission network infrastructure. The storage system provides the grid with the necessary output to ensure the voltage level on the network remains steady.
What are energy storage systems (ESS)?
Energy Storage Systems (ESS) play a critical role in the integration of VRE into the power grid, as these systems manage the intermittencies of renewable energy resources and mitigate potential power supply disruptions.
Is ESS a viable technology in MENA?
With the lack of a long-duration grid-scale ESS to date, ESS is still viewed as an emerging technology in MENA and associated with high technology and financing risks by the private sector. Accordingly, ESS projects might require more equity spending as compared to conventional power and renewables projects for the short to medium term.
