Signing of documents in Baku, Azerbaijan. Image: Republic of Azerbaijan, Ministry of Energy. Power plant developer ACWA Power and the government of Azerbaijan have signed an agreement to potentially deploy a battery energy storage system (BESS) in the central Asian country.
These trends are highly relevant for Azerbaijan, and during the COP29 climate conference, the Baku International Sea Trade Port (BISTP) and Malaysia's Tiza Green Energy (a subsidiary of Citaglobal) launched the country's first project integrating solar energy with a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS).
The Baku Dam generates 2400 megawatts of power. It would provide electricity for all of Karakas and for industries and cities in mainland Malaysia through a cable under the South China Sea. At 650 kilometers, this would be the longest cable in the world.
China is poised to become a key partner in Azerbaijan's adoption of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and other advanced energy technologies. During COP29, Azerbaijan's Ministry of Energy signed a Memorandum of Understanding with China Southern Power Grid International (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd and Powerchina Huadong Engineering Corporation Limited.
According to the Ministry of Energy, by the end of last year, Azerbaijan's renewable energy capacity was estimated at around 1,700 MW, accounting for 20% of the country's total power generation.
By 2027, the construction of eight industrial-scale solar and wind power plants is expected to add 2 GW of green energy capacity, increasing the share of renewables to 33% of Azerbaijan's total energy mix.
