Optimal Battery Energy Storage System

Optimal Battery Energy Storage System

Project Description

This project aims to implement a battery energy storage system (BESS) for EPBIH, aimed at enhancing the decarbonisation of the energy sector in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The BESS will be designed to integrate additional intermittent renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power, thereby increasing the share of renewable energy in the gross final energy consumption. The system will address mid- and long-term storage capacities, ensuring flexibility and reliability in the power system. 

The WBIF provides technical assistance for developing the concept, feasibility study, preliminary ESIA, and implementation roadmap for the project.
