IPP Decci Group inaugurates largest BESS in Czech Republic
A project combining gas turbines and battery energy storage system (BESS) technology in the Czech Republic has been put into commercial operation, the largest in the country. Decci Group, an independent power producer (IPP), announced the completion of the hybrid ''Energy Nest'' project earlier this month (10 July).
DRC can move up the lithium battery value chain
The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) could become a major low-cost and low-emission producer of lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery precursors, says research company BloombergNEF in a report, but the country must move beyond the simple export of raw materials.
Democratic Republic of Congo lithium energy storage power
Moss Landing Energy Storage Facility has the world''''s largest battery energy storage system (BESS) with 300MW / 1,200MWh of lithium-ion batteries. It began operations in December last year, located at the site of a former natural gas power plant owned by Vistra Energy, in the service area of California investor-owned utility Pacific Gas
European Commission adds lithium to Critical Raw Materials list
Lithium has been added to a list of raw materials deemed essential to secure supply in Europe, for the first time ever, by the European Commission. For e-car batteries and energy storage alone, Europe will for instance need up to 18 times more lithium by 2030 and up to 60 times more by 2050," said European Commission politician Maroš
5 ONGOING LITHIUM PROJECTS IN AFRICA
Africa is home to some of the world''s largest lithium reserves and notably, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Ghana, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Mali have this resource in commercial quantities. Lithium is a critical raw material required in the world''s transition to a

Renewable energy at what cost? A closer look at DRC''s nascent lithium
Our investigation into the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)''s nascent lithium industry reveals serious governance, environmental and social risks that could undermine the sector if left unaddressed.
Lithium mining in DRC could make it a top global supplier
Although it does not yet produce lithium, the Democratic Republic of Congo looks set to become one of the world''s suppliers of this metal, classified as strategic by the Congolese authorities in 2018, by as early as 2022.
GESP: Energy Storage Policy Support Program
The objective of this Program is to support countries to strengthen policies and regulations to facilitate energy storage integration and participation in electricity markets to manage supply and demand across the region. This Program will also evaluate different energy storage technologies, including hydro-pumped storage (HPS) and Li-ion batteries.
Producing Battery Materials in The DRC Could Lower Supply-Chain
London and Kinshasa, November 24, 2021 – The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) can leverage its abundant cobalt resources and hydroelectric power to become a low-cost and low-emissions producer of lithium-ion battery cathode precursor materials.
DR Congo''s Lithium Reserves
The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is home to vast mineral wealth, including cobalt, copper, gold, and diamonds. In recent years, the global focus has shifted towards the DRC''s significant lithium reserves, as the demand for electric vehicle batteries and renewable energy storage solutions continues to rise.
