Namibia''s first battery storage project ''signifies dedication to

A joint venture (JV) between the two Chinese companies will deliver the 54MW/54MWh Ombuu battery energy storage system (BESS) project in Namibia''s Erongo Region, at the existing Omburu Substation. Construction is expected to take around 18 months for the project to come online in the latter part of 2025.

Namibia: EPC contract signed for first-ever grid-scale BESS

The BESS will use Narada Power''s lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cells, and will perform a number of ''stacked'' applications: peak shifting, energy arbitrage, emergency backup power, ramp-rate control and reactive power control.

OMBURU BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM (BESS)

As the first utility-scale storage projects in Namibia, the Omburu BESS will provide the following benefits: • Surplus electricity from RE generation as well as cheaper electricity imports from the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) can be stored in

Narada, Shandong to build first BESS in Namibia

The lithium-based BESS will help combat power shortages and reduce the impact of intermittent solar power. Shandong said construction is set to start in February 2024 and could ease Namibia''s reliance on imported supplies of electricity. Neighbouring countries currently supply up to 70% of Namibia''s power needs, Shandong said.
