Energy storage (ES) plays a key role in the energy transition to low-carbon economies due to the rising use of intermittent renewable energy in electrical grids. Among the different ES technologies, compress.
[pdf] Let’s cut to the chase: In December 2023, Windhoek made history by launching Namibia’s first grid-scale energy storage system. This 54MWh project in Erongo Region isn’t just a battery installation – it’s a game-changer for a country where 70% of electricity was imported pre-2023 [1].
[pdf] The Botswana energy storage project is quietly becoming Africa’s dark horse in the clean energy race. As of March 2025, this $120 million initiative has already deployed enough battery capacity to power 15,000 homes during peak demand.
[pdf] A roundup of energy storage news from across the continent of Africa, with Morocco’s ONEE shortlisting bidders for a pumped hydro project, Somalia launching a grid-scale solar and storage tender, and a microgrid pairing grid-scale solar, BESS and diesel at a mine in Zambia.
[pdf] Project Drawdown’s Distributed Energy Storage solution involves the use of decentralized energy storage systems. There are two basic sources of small-scale storage: stand-alone batteries and electric vehic.
[pdf] Inherent in the Jingyuan energy storage projects is a suite of advanced technologies that enables enhanced energy retention and utilization. One key component involves the implementation of lithium-ion battery technology, which has revolutionized the energy storage landscape.
