Two sets of 350MW compressed air energy storage (CAES) units will be built, meaning a total power of 700MW, while the energy storage capacity will be 2.8GWh, via compressed air stored in a cavern with a capacity of 1.2 million cubic meters. That implies a discharge duration of four hours. [pdf]
In West Africa, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are being deployed to enhance household energy storage solutions. The West African Power Pool (WAPP) is leading efforts to create a regulatory framework for these systems, which aim to optimize the use of renewable energy sources like wind and solar1. Additionally, countries in the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) are exploring battery storage systems to achieve their green electrification goals, thereby improving energy access and stability2.

In Ukraine, compressed air energy storage (CAES) power stations are being developed to enhance energy storage capabilities. For instance, DTEK is constructing six energy storage power plants across multiple locations, with a total capacity of 400MWh, which can power approximately 600,000 households for two hours1.CAES technology works by compressing air to high pressure in a storage vessel or underground cavern, which can later be released to generate electricity when needed2. This method allows for efficient energy storage and helps balance supply and demand in the energy grid. [pdf]
