What's happening in Chile's Bess market?
The current wave of excitement around Chile’s BESS market started in October , when the Chilean government passed legislation that incentivised the deployment of energy storage. The bill allows standalone energy storage systems to receive income from dispatching their energy and power in the country’s National Electric System market.
How much does a battery cost in Chile?
In fact, batteries charged at nearly $0/MWh during the day in the sunny, northern desert regions of Chile, sell energy at night for over $100/MWh. Although projects such as Engie’s BESS Coya are already enjoying these large spreads, this capacity payment will partially de-risk Chile’s dependence on volatile, but still profitable, merchant revenues.
How many Bess projects are there in Chile?
This momentum is reflected in the data: AMI estimates that there is a 7.7 GW pipeline of BESS projects in Chile, far and away the most advanced front of the meter (FTM) storage market in Latin America. 1 Only 505 MW of BESS projects are currently operational in the entire region.
Is Chile ready for a standalone energy storage project?
This project alone nears the capacity (13GWh) the Chilean Ministry of Energy sought in a public land bidding auction for standalone energy storage projects in May of . Chile has been one of the countries at the forefront of the renewable energy transition in Latin America, first with solar PV and now with BESS.
Will Chile's Bess market come in different waves?
One aspect of the development of Chile’s BESS market this year that seems to have taken Silva by surprise is that he expected the market to come in different waves, starting with co-located or hybrid projects over standalone or even solar-plus-storage over wind-plus-storage.
Should energy storage be a luxury asset in Chile?
Having energy storage in Chile is no longer a luxury asset but has become an “absolute necessity”, explains Alejandro McDonough, business development manager of Americas area sales at Wärtsilä Energy Storage and Optimisation (Wärtsilä ES&O).
