This is GEAPP’s first BESS project in Africa. GEAPP is providing up to $20 million in grant funding to the Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi (ESCOM) to support the design, procurement, installation, and operation of the BESS site. The Government of Malawi and ESCOM are providing match funding. The planned commission date is in 2025.
The Malawi BESS project will guide the scale-up of BESS projects in the Consortium’s participating countries. To alleviate energy poverty by 2030 and save a gigaton of CO2 in low and middle-income countries, it is estimated that 90 GW of BESS must be developed to support the required 400 GW of renewable energy.
BTM energy storge is becoming increasingly important in the African market as grid instability and falling cell prices pushes consumers towards installing storage. In South Africa, Eskom, the country’s main electricity utility, registered 69 days of load shedding in 2024, leading to widespread power shortages.
The average size of these projects sits a ~0.26GWh, a large increase from the projects currently operational. This largely reflects the direction in which the storage market is moving more generally, with larger cell sizes allowing system sizes to increase. Have you read?
