WITH the global energy storage system market expected to reach $17.9 billion by 2027, battery energy storage systems (BESS) are emerging as the strongest solution to increase grid flexibility and reliability.

To help improve grid performance in the country, SMC Global Power Holdings Corp. (SMC), one of the major suppliers of power to the national grid in the Philippines, has partnered with ABB to install BESS facilities as part of its nationwide BESS Project, the region's largest BESS project. As part of a multimillion-dollar contract won in 2019, ABB will support two 20MW sites, which will be installed by June 2021 with a further 40MW site in July 2021. The remaining sites will be completed in 2022.
