Does Peru have a Bess regulation?

Peru has no existing BESS regulation and is currently evaluating how to move forward with battery storage projects. In fact, in January 2024, Peru’s energy and mining investment regulator, Osinergmin, opened a request for a proposal for a study on energy storage.

How many GWh will a Bess project have in 2022?

BESS deployments are already happening on a very large scale. One US energy company is working on a BESS project that could eventually have a capacity of six GWh. Another US company, with business interests inside and outside of energy, has already surpassed that, having reached 6.5 GWh in BESS deployments in 2022.
