South African utility Eskom releases tender for 80 MW/320 MWh of storage
South African utility Eskom has released a tender for the deployment of 80 MW/ 320 MWh of power storage capacity at its Skaapvlei substation, in the Western Cape area. The center will help handle periodic power generated by a 100 MW Eskom wind farm close by. The selected developer will certainly make, develop as well as operate the storage space center and supply procedures and maintenance solutions for five years. The deadline to send job propositions is September 11. The tender for the center comes in the wake of publication of South Africa's brand-new Integrated Resource Plan (IRP), which goes for as much as 6 GW of brand-new big scale solar by 2030, as well as up to 6 GW of smaller, distributed-generation capacity. Various other tenders provided because the new IRP was revealed consist of one in October for a little solar project, and also an expression of passion launched in April for "decommissioned power station repurposing" which included the alternative of renewables ability. Eskom is working with unbundling its power syndicate as it suffers constant blackouts, partly because of upkeep problems at its aging coal-fired power plants.
