South Africa’s national power utility company, Eskom, has just unveiled the largest Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in South Africa. This is not only the first one of its kind in South Africa, but also a first on the African continent. Eskom officially opened the Hex BESS site at Worcester in Western Cape yesterday.
The battery energy storage initiative will significantly enhance South Africa’s power infrastructure, alleviating grid congestion and increasing renewable energy integration. It aims to aid South Africa’s low-carbon energy transition and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 through energy arbitrage and ancillary services.
