HOME / Uganda Announces 100mw Solar250 Mwh Bess Project In - KKA Industrial Storage
Uganda has approved a major 100 MW solar project paired with a 250 MWh battery storage system—a landmark initiative for solar energy in Uganda. The facility, to be built in Kapeeka, marks the first phase of. SAN FRANCISCO, CA, UNITED STATES, August 7, 2025 / EINPresswire. com / — The Government of Uganda has officially issued a Gazetted Policy Direction authorizing the development of a 100 megawatt-peak (MWp) solar photovoltaic (PV) power plant integrated with 250 megawatt-hours (MWh) of battery energy. The Government of Uganda has officially issued a Gazetted Policy Direction authorizing the development of a 100 MW solar photovoltaic power plant integrated with 250 MWh of battery energy storage (BESS) in Kapeeka Sub-County, Nakaseke District.
A battery energy storage system (BESS) facility of 40 MW capacity is sought under the project to enable seamless integration of clean energy onto the national electricity grid to provide uninterrupted supply of power to the country's residents.
This project has advanced the commercial readiness of flywheel technology by enhancing the product design, confirming performance and reliability, advancing manufacturing processes, validating the safety criteria, and demonstrating the management of a multi-unit array.
The 20-megawatt system marks a milestone in flywheel energy storage technology, as similar systems have only been applied in testing and small-scale applications. The system utilizes 200 carbon fiber flywheels levitated in a vacuum chamber. The flywheels absorb grid energy and can steadily discharge 1-megawatt of electricity for 15 minutes.
This project explored flywheel energy storage R&D to reach commercial viability for utility scale energy storage. This required advancing the design, manufacturing capability, system cost, storage capacity, efficiency, reliability, safety, and system level operation of flywheel energy storage technology.
The flywheel system offers an alternative. Beacon Power reports that 18-megawatts from the new flywheel storage system are already online, and the system will be operating at full capacity by the end of June. Flywheels are an ingenious way to store energy. Essentially, a giant rotor is levitated and spun in a chamber by way of magnets.
While many papers compare different ESS technologies, only a few research, studies design and control flywheel-based hybrid energy storage systems. Recently, Zhang et al. present a hybrid energy storage system based on compressed air energy storage and FESS.
Thanks to the unique advantages such as long life cycles, high power density, minimal environmental impact, and high power quality such as fast response and voltage stability, the flywheel/kinetic energy storage system (FESS) is gaining attention recently.
Flywheels are an ingenious way to store energy. Essentially, a giant rotor is levitated and spun in a chamber by way of magnets. Since there is very little friction, the flywheel spins continually with very little added energy input needed. Energy can then be drawn from the system on command by tapping into the spinning rotor as a generator.
Utility EWEC (Emirates Water and Electricity Company) has invited developers to submit expressions of interest (EOI) for a 400MW battery energy storage system (BESS) project in the UAE.
It follows EWEC's recommendation made this time last year that the UAE should deploy 300MW/300MWh of BESS capacity by 2026. It didn't reveal when it hoped the 400MW (MWh capacity undisclosed) would come online, so it's not clear whether this is part of a longer-term target or whether its forecasted needs have increased.
"Ewec is deploying bess to enhance the flexibility and stability of Abu Dhabi's energy network, allowing for the effective management of peak demand and integration of increasing amounts of renewable energy," the utility said in a media statement on 25 July.

Emirates Water and Electricity Co. (EWEC) has started accepting expressions of interest for a 400 MW battery energy storage system (BESS).
Interested parties should submit their EOI to [email protected], after which EWEC will issue a request for qualifications to parties wishing to proceed to the next stage. Utility EWEC has invited developers to submit expressions of interest (EOI) for a 400MW BESS project in the UAE.
The planned facility is expected to provide up to 800 megawatt-hours (MWh) of storage capacity. Called Bess 1, the project will closely follow the model of Ewec's independent power project (IPP) programme, in which developers enter into a long-term energy storage agreement (ESA) with Ewec as the sole procurer.
The project will involve the development, financing, construction, operation, maintenance and ownership of the BESS system and associated infrastructure, with EWEC then entering into a long-term power purchase agreement (PPA) for the project's offtake.
