In an article featured on The Business Times, Rodrigo Hernandezvara, Head of Solar C&I at ENGIE highlights how Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), combined with renewable energy sources like solar power, are revolutionizing energy solutions for the region.
Of the 11 ASEAN members, Singapore is taking the lead in the battery energy storage systems (BESS) space. Earlier this year, the city-state launched the region's largest battery energy storage system (BESS).
A battery energy storage system is a power station that uses batteries to store excess energy. A BESS is a potential unsung hero in the world's efforts to pivot to more renewable energy sources in the power sector.
The ASEAN bloc has set the targets of 23% renewable energy in its Total Primary Energy Supply (TPES) and 35% renewable energy in ASEAN installed power capacity by 2025. This means that energy storage is required. Additionally, without BESS acceptance on a larger level, the needed funds won't materialise, and fewer BESS will be built.

Last year, Italy achieved its best year in the last decade, with more than 5GW of solar PV capacity added in 2023.
Compressed-air-energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy for later use using compressed air. At a utility scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during peak load periods. The first utility-scale CAES project was in the Huntorf power plant in Elsfleth, Germany. CAES offers a powerful means to store excess electricity by using it to compress air, which can be released and expanded through a turbine to generate electricity when the grid requires additional power. This capability ensures that energy is available during periods of high demand while mitigating the environmental impact of conventional. Mechanical storage systems stand out among the available energy storage methods due to their reduced investment expenses, prolonged lifetimes, and increased power/energy ratings. Think of it like charging a giant “air battery. ” When renewable energy produces more electricity than the.
