The stakeholders estimated that by 2028, the Dominican Republic will need to deploy between 250 to 400 MW of energy storage systems. Their projection is based on the country’s current renewable energy market..
USTDA’s grant will help create enabling regulations for battery energy storage systems to maintain the stability of the country’s power grid as new wind and solar power plants are built. USTDA and SIE announced their collaboration during the COP26 summit..
The new regulation, officially issued after completing administrative steps, will require projects of more than 20 megawatts to include at least 50% battery storage capacity. Veras stressed that energy storage is now a critical public policy, supported by President Luis Abinader, who considers this measure essential to ensure the success of the . .
Construction has started on the first major solar-plus-storage project in the Dominican Republic, which features a 24.8MW/99MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). The Comisión Nacional De Energia (CNE) of the Dominican Republic announced the start of work on the Dominicana Azul solar project shortly in late December (22 December). [pdf]
