Battery energy storage systems (BESS) hold part of the answer. Of course, most operators will already be well educated as to the benefits of storing excess energy and redeploying it when the sun isn’t shining, or the wind isn’t blowing to balance the grid and ensure constant reliability.
This is because the majority of the Philippines’ existing grid structure is decades old and was only ever designed to deal with a steady, reliable supply of energy under the assumption that the amount of energy fed into the grid is always equal to the amount consumed.
The plant will initially have a production capacity of 300MWh a year – the equivalent of about 30,000 home battery storage systems – which will supply the local Philippines market, its Asian neighbours, as well as Australia and US.
