Government awarded 20 new battery energy storage projects to reduce blackouts

The Argentine government announced through the Ministry of Economy's Secretariat of Energy the awarding of 20 new battery energy storage projects under the 'Alma SADI' tender. These projects aim to reduce power outages by adding 700.5 MW of capacity across seven regions of the country, including Buenos Aires Province, the Northwest, Northeast, and others. The initiative responds to an 'energy emergency,' particularly electrical, and aligns with a contingency plan developed based on assessments by the Company Administrator of the Wholesale Electricity Market (CAMMESA). Five companies—GENNEIA, DQD Energy, 360 Energy Solar, ALUAR, and INTERMEPRO—were awarded contracts after receiving 235 technical bids totaling over 8,338 MW. The government emphasized that these advanced battery systems will improve grid flexibility and service reliability for residential, commercial, and industrial users.
