4 FAQs about [Cross-border energy storage projects]

Does Cross-Border Interconnection capacity increase res production?

The results of scenario 3 show that adding cross-border interconnection capacity allows additional penetration of variable RES into the system and the total RES production reaches about 91.6% of the total. Further, the annual CEEP is reduced by 47% compared to scenario 2.

What is the energy storage potential?

The energy storage potential is specific to each country and it mainly depends on the availability of the resources, regulations, transmission infrastructure and energy consumption patterns.

Will cross-border interconnections expand in Colombia?

Cross-border interconnections As described in Section 2, the interconnection capacity with neighbouring countries could expand in Colombia over the coming decades. However, this will depend on several uncertain factors such as the economic situation, politics, market arrangements, demand profiles and the future power mix of the countries involved.

Can storage and interconnections increase the penetration of variable res?

The results evidenced that increasing levels of storage and interconnections could allow further penetration of variable RES, achieving total annual electricity production levels of approximately 96.8%.
