The project, considered the world's largest solar-storage project, will install 3.5GW of solar photovoltaic capacity and a 4.5GWh battery storage system. The project has commenced in November 2024.
[pdf] As of March 2025, the global energy storage market has ballooned to $78 billion, with lithium-ion batteries commanding 62% of installations . But here's the kicker—Brazil holds 18% of the world's lithium reserves yet contributes less than 5% to global battery production.
[pdf] EGYPES will take place from 17-19 February 2025 in Cairo at the Egypt International Exhibition Center with an expanded exhibition space attracting 35,000 attendees from international businesses to identify opportunities from Egypt, North Africa and the Mediterranean’s future project requirements, strategic priorities and gain insights into the wider oil and gas sector.
[pdf] Spanish ports are becoming a battleground for storage tech. CATL's new 20MW lithium installation in Bilbao boasts 92% efficiency, while upstart Volterion's vanadium flow batteries promise 25-year lifespans. The subsidy twist?
[pdf] Since 2022, Bairen Energy Storage has deployed 47 battery energy storage systems (BESS) across West Africa. Their Ouagadougou flagship project—a 20MW/80MWh lithium-ion facility—powers 15,000 homes after dark using solar energy captured during daylight.
[pdf] The city's first grid-scale flow battery (30MW/120MWh) came online in January 2025, providing 4-hour discharge capacity for evening peak demand. Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries currently power 83% of Tbilisi's commercial storage projects.
