Projects & Applications
The global pipeline of energy storage projects is growing rapidly across a variety of market segments, including distributed, grid-scale, off-grid and second-life projects.
From increasing solar self-consumption, reducing consumption peaks, providing flexibility to the electricity system, to deferring costly investments in transmission and distribution infrastructure, the range of applications which energy storage devices can provide is constantly evolving.
To build a robust business case, however, most storage facilities need to provide several services.

Dominican Republic approves rules for 200 MW / 800 MWh BESS at existing solar/wind plants
The tender is reserved for solar PV and wind farms that already hold long-term supply contracts with Edenorte, Edesur, or Edeeste and do not currently have energy storage. Contract awards are scheduled for February 25, 2027, with the new agreements set to run for 15 years.

Dutch residential battery market surges ahead of net metering phaseout
With the abolition of net metering just weeks away, households are increasingly turning to battery storage to protect the value of their solar energy. New figures from Sunergy Research reveal explosive growth across all battery categories, with plug-in batteries emerging as the market's biggest breakthrough.
Salt-based thermal storage supports renewable steam in Spain
A renewable steam project at Bayer's pharmaceutical plant in Spain combines salt-based thermal storage with a 15 MW renewable power purchase agreement (PPA) and 2.5 MW of on-site solar, in an effort to replace fossil fuels used for industrial heat.
Brazil’s state energy planner projects 139 GWh for behind-the-meter BESS by 2036
The estimate from federal agency EPE considers surplus generation injected into the grid by distributed solar PV systems. Unlocking this full capacity would require roughly BRL 70 billion ($12.2 billion) in investment at battery costs of BRL 500/kWh ($87/kWh).

El Pelícano raises $129.58 million for solar-plus-storage in Chile
El Pelícano Solar Co. will use proceeds from a $129.58 million bond placement to refinance existing debt and help fund a four-hour battery energy storage system (BESS) at its 110 MW solar plant in Chile. The project is listed at 75 MW/300 MWh by Chile’s National Energy Commission, compared with the 82 MW cited by the company’s legal adviser.
