Plans to deploy 60-70 MW of battery electricity storage solutions
Plans are underway for the deployment of 60-70 MW or the equivalent of 160-220 MWh of i-BESS or rather independent battery electricity storage solutions in Burkina Faso in the coming years.
Improving the performance of PV/diesel microgrids via integration
This study investigated three scenarios based on the existing microgrid''s characteristics: conventional standalone diesel generators, PV/diesel without battery storage and PV/diesel with a battery storage system which are the main technologies used for off-grid rural electrification in Burkina Faso.
Energy storage integration with solar PV for increased electricity
This study aims to perform a techno-economic feasibility analysis of the integration of solar PV together with two storage options, viz. Li-ion batteries, and hypothetical PHS for electrification of Burkina Faso through different configurations.

IFC to assess the potential for private energy storage solutions in
Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, February 24, 2020 – IFC, a member of the World Bank Group, signed an agreement with Burkina Faso''s Ministry of Energy to assess how private investment in energy storage can contribute to higher levels of solar power production while enhancing grid stability and dispatch issues. This assessment will lead to the
Burkina Faso Could Boost Renewable Energy Mix with Battery Storage
It outlines how Burkina Faso could reduce its reliance on fossil fuels and energy imports by taking advantage of its fast-growing solar power sector. The report found that by deploying 60-70MW (160-220MWh) of independent battery energy storage solutions (i-BESS) the energy sector could potentially save between 800 million and 1.8 billion FCFA
