Grid operator ISA CTEEP has started commercially operating a large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) at the Registro substation in the Brazilian state of Sao Paulo. The 30 MW/60 MWh BESS is expected to provide backup power to the grid during hours of peak demand in summer. Unicamp, in São Paulo, Brazil, inaugurated the CampusGrid solar-plus-storage project on its Barão Geraldo campus in Campinas on Nov. The inauguration of the 30MW/60MWh system took place last year, on the networks of transmission system operator (TSO) ISO CTEEP, as reported by. . ng its integrators and equipment providers. We energized the country's first project in 2022 at the Registro Substation (SP), one of the facilities responsible for supplying electricity to the southern. . Brazil's federal government will launch its first major battery energy storage system (BESS) tender in April 2026, targeting 2 GW (~8 GWh) of capacity and mobilizing over USD 2 billion in procurement. The auction presents significant opportunities for U. suppliers of batteries, smart-grid. .

Battery storage has less of a track record than other renewable energy assets such as solar and wind power. The lack of comfort on the part of lenders has meant that the project financing packages available have been generally unappealing, with low gearing and onerous covenants.
It has traditionally been difficult to secure project finance for energy storage for two key reasons. Firstly, the nascent nature of energy storage technology means that fixed income lenders and senior debt providers are naturally risk averse.
Lenders have been willing to lend to renewable assets against a guaranteed fixed revenue stream. This may take the form of a contract for difference, or some other sort of government-backed incentive, or a power purchase agreement with a bankable and creditworthy counterparty.
The second, bigger obstacle to the project financing of storage assets is that the revenue stack for batteries is more complicated than for generating assets. Unlike wind and solar projects, battery projects are not generating electricity. Rather, they provide a service and act as arbitrage assets.
Solis, a global leader in renewable energy, has successfully deployed an advanced off-grid Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in Myanmar. This milestone project reinforces Solis' commitment to sustainable energy solutions and reducing dependence on traditional power sources.
