total investment cost of grid tied storage system project in South Africa

How much does Scatec's battery energy storage project cost?

The estimated total capex for the battery energy storage project is ZAR 2.2 billion (USD 120 million) of which Scatec’s EPC contracts account for approximately 80%. The project will be financed by 90% non-recourse project debt and the remaining by equity from the owners.

Why should we invest in battery energy storage in South Africa?

We applaud the South African government’s commitment and dedication to the renewable energy procurement programmes. Battery energy storage will continue to play an important role in the energy transition, and we will continue to be at the forefront across our core markets,” says Scatec CEO Terje Pilskog.

How much storage capacity is secured under the first grid-scale bid window?

The Department of Electricity and Energy has stated that the signing of the agreements with the additional two projects has secured a total of 360 MW/ MWh of storage capacity under the country’s first grid-scale batter Bid Window.

With a total investment of approximately $1 billion, Scatec says the Kenhardt project marks the largest commitment in its history. The project debt is provided by a group of lenders that includes The Standard Bank Group as lead arranger and British International Investment (BII).
