Backed by New Energy Promotion Council (NEPC), the project aims to use large-capacity power storage systems to assess the improvement of supply-demand balance.

The BESS will feature an array of SCiB lithium-ion batteries, transformers for connection to grid, step-up transformers, power conditioner and battery panel.

The system can regulate renewable energy supply and demand.

The company has already started work on the storage facility with plans to commission at the end of February 2016.

Last year, Toshiba delivered 40MW-class BESS for Tohoku’s Nishi-Sendai project to regulate frequency changes.

The company has earlier delivered the SCiB for a University of Sheffield-led 2MW energy storage system project in the UK.
