At its core, the system combines solar photovoltaic arrays with a flow battery storage setup that could power 15,000 homes. But here's the kicker—they're using retired EV batteries from Europe, giving old power packs new purpose under the African sun [1].
[pdf] The battery system will have a discharge capacity of 38 MW and a storage capacity of up to 70.8 MWh, designed to operate for around twenty years. An environmental assessment is required because the investor, the local company Funicula, plans to develop the site as a standalone solar power plant.
[pdf] This facility, spanning Nueva Ecija and Bulacan, will be the world’s largest single-site solar and BESS project. The first phase of the project will deliver 2,500 MW of capacity, with the entire development set to play a key role in the Philippines’ transition to a low-carbon energy system.
