The Philippines Department of Energy (DOE) has outlined new draft market rules and policies for energy storage, a month after the country allowed 100% foreign ownership of renewable energy assets.
The project, which is strategically located on the Philippines' main island of Luzon, about 100km from Manila, will combine 3.5GWp of solar PV capacity with 4.5GWh of battery energy storage system (BESS).
As the Philippines gears up for the entry of more renewables into the grid, the government anticipates close to 2,000 MW of battery storage capacity to complement them. According to DOE data as of end-March, ESS projects with a combined capacity of 594 MW are committed to come online over the next three years.
A feature article in the most recent edition of our quarterly journal, PV Tech Power, looked at the emergence of opportunities for energy storage in the Southeast Asia region, driven by a need to meet rising demand for electricity in a part of the world experiencing rapid economic growth.
The project has strong sustainability credentials, notably because of its impact in decarbonising the Philippines' energy system (SDG7), but also by generating power to support economic development (SDG8), creating more than 10,000 new jobs (SDG8), and facilitating local development (SDGs3+4).
