3 FAQs about [Colombia bess storage capacity]

Does Colombia have a power purchase agreement for hybrid solar & Bess projects?

As of now, Colombia’s reliability charge (Cargo por Confiabilidad) has encouraged hybrid solar + BESS projects to progress. Large energy companies have expressed that there are no Power Purchasing Agreements (PPAs) available specifically for stand-alone storage projects, making it harder to finance those projects.

Should Bess storage be paired with large solar assets?

The Dominican Republic’s National Energy Commission (CNE) issued a resolution in February 2023 that requires BESS storage to be paired with large solar assets. However, the renumeration is not yet clear and developers are concerned about interconnection delays for their BESS assets.

Does Mexico have a Bess market?

Mexico’s FTM BESS market is practically nonexistent. BESS is not defined by law but rather by the market. Storage projects must register as an active plant (“central electrica”) and be represented by a market participant, in this case, a generator. Hence, they pay transmission and other charges, making stand-alone projects unprofitable.
