Integrating Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) into the Grid for Energy Transition

Indonesia’s electricity plan outlines a significant need for battery energy storage systems (BESS) to support its renewable energy goals and achieve net-zero emissions. Key steps identified for successful BESS integration include a clear roadmap, a suitable business model, energy modeling, standards development, and capacity building. This project aims to establish a strong foundation for BESS deployment in Indonesia through model-based analyses of grid impacts.

Furthermore, it focuses on developing a tailored BESS business model, an integrated policy framework and roadmap, and national BESS standards (SNI). ETP is providing technical assistance in creating these national standards and the policy framework. Ultimately, the objective is to accelerate Indonesia’s energy transition by enabling the effective integration of BESS into its energy infrastructure.
