Technical FAQs 4

What is Bess & how does it work in ASEAN?

Typical BESS components include battery modules, a storage enclosure with thermal management, a power conversion system (PCS), a battery management system (BMS) and an energy management system (EMS). A few other ASEAN countries are also starting to wake up to the advantages of BESS in their respective energy sectors. But, it’s a slow start.

Does ASEAN need energy storage?

The ASEAN bloc has set the targets of 23% renewable energy in its Total Primary Energy Supply (TPES) and 35% renewable energy in ASEAN installed power capacity by 2025. This means that energy storage is required. Additionally, without BESS acceptance on a larger level, the needed funds won’t materialise, and fewer BESS will be built.

Is Bess a pillar of Southeast Asia's Energy and industrial future?

Regional initiatives such as ENABLE, the ASEAN Power Grid Advancement Program (AIMS III), and the ASEAN Battery Technology Collaboration are further reinforcing these drivers. Collectively, they position BESS not as an optional upgrade, but as an essential pillar of Southeast Asia’s energy and industrial future for the coming decade.

What is a battery energy storage system (Bess) in Singapore?

Singapore’s new BESS will help mitigate the solar intermittency caused by changing weather conditions in the region’s tropical climate. Because wind and solar resources aren’t constantly available and predictable, they’re referred to as intermittent energy resources. What Is a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)?
