On September 13, independent power producer (IPP) Grenergy Renovables issued a statement saying that Grenergy has extended its strategic agreement with BYD to provide battery energy storage systems (BESS) for its multi-phase Oasis de Atacama solar-storage project in northern Chile.
The supply agreement, which now expands battery storage capacity to a total of 3GWh, is not only BYD's largest supply agreement to date, but also breaks the record for the largest order from an Asian multinational.
Previously, the two companies signed an initial agreement in January to supply 1.1 GWh of energy storage systems in the first phase. According to the entire agreement with Grenergy, the project will require 537 energy storage system units. If the containers have an installed capacity of 3GWh, then each container will have an installed capacity of just over 5MWh.
