6 FAQs about [Niger battery storage and grid integration program]

Can grid-scale battery storage improve ancillary service market in Ukraine?

In Ukraine, the Energy Storage Program supported a variable renewable energy (VRE) integration analysis of grid-scale battery storage’s potential role in developing and balancing Ukraine's ancillary service market.

How can Niger balance its energy mix?

This transformative project, funded by the World Bank through the International Development Association (IDA), will enable Niger to better balance its energy mix, which is currently largely dominated by thermal energy. This initiative is particularly crucial for a country that frequently faces climatic shocks.

What is the energy storage program?

The Energy Storage program provides operational support to clients by working with World Bank teams to advance the IDA20 Energy Policy Commitment of developing battery storage in at least 15 countries (including at least 10 fragile and conflict-affected situations).

What is the energy storage Academy?

The Energy Storage Academy was established to create a space for knowledge-sharing on energy storage. The academy is the platform which disseminates to World Bank clients the knowledge generated by the different working groups of the ESP. During 2020 and 2021, 39 countries participated and 16 have projects receiving WB support.

How can the energy storage sizing app facilitate knowledge exchange?

Leveraging technology for facilitating knowledge exchange: the program developed the Energy Storage Sizing App that countries can use to obtain a preliminary assessment of the energy storage sizing requirements and to project the cost of hybrid solar PV and energy storage systems, using storage for smoothing and shifting applications.

Why did ECOWAS support the energy storage program?

In the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), the Energy Storage Program's support was critical in preparing the Regional Electricity Access and BEST Project.
