The State Grid energy storage project in Zimbabwe aims to address the country's energy shortages by installing energy-storage units. The government is inviting bids for these units to mitigate the impact of rolling blackouts caused by an ongoing power supply crisis1. The initiative aligns with Zimbabwe's broader energy transition goals, targeting 2,100 MW of renewable energy capacity by 2030, with battery storage expected to enhance the viability of solar and wind energy projects3. The storage facilities will have a combined capacity of 1,800 megawatts4. [pdf]
