Deploying Storage for Power Systems in Developing Countries : Policy and Regulatory Considerations

This report provides a brief overview of the role of energy storage against the background of current trends in power systems with a particular emphasis on developing countries. It introduces the different ways in which storage can help meet policy objectives and overcome technical challenges in the power sector, it provides guidance on how to determine the value of storage solutions from a system perspective, and discusses relevant aspects of policy, market and regulatory frameworks to facilitate storage deployment. The document is intended to highlight relevant issues, provide guidance to policymakers and regulators in this relatively new area and identify...

Economic Analysis of Battery Energy Storage Systems

The recent advances in battery technology and reductions in battery costs have brought battery energy storage systems (BESS) to the point of becoming increasingly cost-effective projects to serve a range of power sector interventions, especially when combined with PV and where diesel is the alternative, or where subsidies or incentives are used. Quantifying the economic impact of BESS requires a high level of temporal granularity in the analysis, because the time-steps required for a reliable assessment of costs and benefits are much shorter than the usual annual time steps of many power sector investment projects. In short, there is as...
