The CEB is introducing a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) on its network to arrest the fluctuation inherent to Variable Renewable Energy (VRE) systems. This is due to the increasing share of VRE in Mauritius' energy mix, as the country's energy transition to a low carbon economy gains momentum.
MWh (Megawatt-hour) is a measure of energy capacity (how long the system can continue delivering that power output). For example, a 1 MW / 4 MWh BESS has four hours of storage capacity.So, while the system might be $200,000 per MW, the effective cost can be $800,000 per MWh if it has four hours duration.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are becoming essential in the shift towards renewable energy, providing solutions for grid stability, energy management, and power quality.
