With the commercial operations of approximately 1,000 MW of BESS facilities across 32 locations in the Philippines, we are now ushering in a new era for the Philippine energy industry through significant improvements in grid reliability and the integration of more renewable power sources to the country’s diverse energy mix.
This technology, one of the most advanced and commercially available, features high specific energy, energy density, and power, and is safe with minimal environmental impact during both construction and operation. Power Philippines is an independent online news publication that aims to provide the latest stories on the energy sector.
In a report by Manila Standard, Ingrid, a joint venture of AC Energy Inc. and Axia Power Holdings Philippines Corporation, a Marubeni Corporation subsidiary from Japan, is undertaking this project in line with the Department of Energy’s (DOE) 2019 circular.
We started our venture into battery energy storage technology in 2018 when we acquired the 10 MW Masinloc Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) of the Masinloc Power Plant from AES Philippines. The Masinloc BESS is the first battery energy storage facility in the Philippines and one of the first in Southeast Asia.
The project, which is strategically located on the Philippines’ main island of Luzon, about 100km from Manila, will combine 3.5GWp of solar PV capacity with 4.5GWh of battery energy storage system (BESS).
The transaction with Solar Philippines New Energy Corporation, which currently owns 100% of the project, was announced at a signing ceremony in Pasig City, Philippines, attended by Torbjorn Caesar, Chairman and Senior Partner at Actis, Manuel V. Pangilinan, Chairman of Meralco, and Emmanuel V. Rubio, CEO of Meralco PowerGen (MGen).
