Energy Storage System deployment in MENA Energy Storage Systems (ESS) play a critical role in the integration of VRE into the power grid, as these systems manage the intermittencies of renewable energy resources and mitigate potential power supply disruptions.
In Saudi Arabia, each of the two awarded rounds of the Renewable Energy Project Development Ofice (REPDO) auctions, totaling 2.17 GW, in addition to the PIF-led projects, has received record-low prices. The 300 MW Sakkaka solar PV project, the first project under REPDO, set a record tarif of 1.34 USD cents/kWh in February 2018.
Although the pace of tarif reform is slower in Saudi Arabia, the government has started gradually lifting energy subsidies, including electricity, gasoline, and other fuels sold domestically. Oman introduced a cost-reflective tarif in 2017 for large industrial, commercial, and public facilities.
Pumped hydro storage (PHS) has the largest share of installed capacity in MENA at 55%, as compared to a global share of 90%. Pumped hydro storage is one of the oldest energy storage technologies, which explains its dominance in the global ESS market.
Although the energy storage market in MENA is bound to grow, several barriers exist that hinder the integration of ESS and the ramping up of investments. Financial, regulatory, and market barriers need to be addressed via policy tools that lay the foundations for an evolved power market to integrate the deployed ESS.
