Africa’s energy storage market has seen a boom since , having risen from just 31MWh to 1,600MWh in , according to trade body AFSIA Solar’s latest report. The Solar Africa Solar Outlook details that energy storage has become a critical complement to variable renewable energy (VRE)
But for an energy system that relies on inherently intermittent sources like wind and solar to be able to function reliably, it needs some way to store electricity. This will allow power to be available when the sun isn’t shining or the wind isn’t blowing. One of the main solutions comes in the
