The World Bank decided to pilot the Water for Agropastoral Livelihoods Project (WALP) in areas of Puntland and Somaliland after analytical research showed boreholes were not always a cost effective or a reliable solution for supplying water to people living in rural Somalia, and how it might be possible to instead store water in sand rivers known as wadis, using centuries-old water technologies.

UK-based renewables developer Harmony Energy is looking to deliver France’s largest battery energy storage system (BESS)—the Cheviré project – using Tesla Megapack technology. The 100 MW project will mark a significant milestone for the French energy system, being the nation’s first large-scale two-hour battery, the developer said.

As reported by BN americas, the country is interested in energy storage projects for the main grid, as well as the isolated southern province of Tierra del Fuego. It is to be noted that Argentina has already floated tenders for solar PV installations with battery storage systems at microgrid scale via its rural electrification program 'Permer'.

Energy storage serves important grid functions, including time-shifting energy across hours, days, weeks, or months; regulating grid frequency; and ensuring flexibility to balance supply and demand. Energy storage is particularly important in an increasingly electrified world where demand is rising and supply is shifting toward variable .

PSH should be considered as a key enabler of the clean energy transition, alongside other energy storage technologies. Three level assessment framework: adopt system needs assessment; technology options assessment; and project optimisation to avoid, minimise and mitigate social and environmental impacts. PSH impacts are site-specific.

On November 10, 2020, the National Energy Administration published a list of its first batch of science and technology innovation (energy storage) pilot demonstration projects. The list of projects includes generation-side, behind-the-meter, and grid-side applications, as well as thermal-generation-bundled energy storage for frequency regulation.

Northern Lights is the first project in the world allowing industrial companies to transport and sequester their CO2 emissions. The project is owned in equal shares by TotalEnergies, Equinor and Shell. Operational since September 2024, the Phase 1 installations can store to 1.5 million tons of CO2 per year.

The new energy storage capacity is expected to allow the utility to reduce renewable energy curtailments by 69%. It is also expected to enable 10% more new utility-scale renewables on the grid than previous models allowed. Hawaiian Electric said it expects the battery to save its customers on electricity bills.

The country’s energy storage plans, while still in the early stages, may offer some hope for the future. A 20 MW/50 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) has been planned for 2025, with expansions planned for 2026-2028. If successful, these projects could help mitigate the intermittent nature of RE.
