As part of a project to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions at Singapore's seaport, Singapore has deployed a large-scale battery storage system for this purpose.
Singapore has surpassed its 2025 energy storage deployment target three years early, with the official opening of the biggest battery storage project in Southeast Asia. The opening was hosted by the 200MW/285MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) project's developer Sembcorp, together with Singapore's Energy Market Authority (EMA).
Singapore will achieve its target of having “giant batteries” to store at least 200MW of energy three years early. The 200MW system is currently being installed across two sites on Jurong Island – Banyan and Sakra. Read more about it here.
SINGAPORE – As Singapore seeks to harness as much sunshine as it can to maximise its limited renewable energy sources, it needs to improve technologies that can store excess solar energy from the day. One such technology is energy storage systems (ESS), which are essentially giant batteries packed in containers that store electricity for later use.
Battery energy storage systems (ESS) provide critical frequency and stability support to power grids. As one of Asia's largest battery operators, our energy storage portfolio is well-positioned to support the evolving needs of power markets as they increase their uptake of renewable energy.
From large-scale energy storage technologies to portable power generation sets and smart battery management systems, Singapore companies provide energy storage solutions to support smart grid implementation, and stronger integration of renewable energies.
However, the minister said there is a need to “step up energy storage systems to manage solar intermittency.” Talks are currently ongoing with Sembcorp, the engineering conglomerate behind the 200MW/285MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) installation on Singapore's Jurong Island.
