In 2025, the government plans to install a total of 50 photovoltaic parks, each with a capacity of 21. This will add 1,200 MW to the National Electroenergetic System (SEN). 87 MW, located in the central province of Sancti Spíritus, began operations after just over two months of installation. This is part of Cuba's national plan that calls for the construction of 55 solar parks by 2025, each with a capacity of 21. On Tuesday, Cuban authorities announced that the administration of President Miguel Diaz-Canel has devised a strategy to increase energy supply through the use of renewable energy, the. . The national plan prioritizes solar, wind, hydroelectric, and biomass energy to reduce its dependence on imported fossil fuels and stabilize the energy system. The installed capacity remains insufficient, resulting in frequent and prolonged power outages.

BESS are Battery Energy Storage Systems that are used to store excess energy produced by solar farms during the day, allowing for its use when generation is low or demand is high. In Cuba, these batteries are being installed in electrical substations to enhance the stability of the. . The plan aims for one thousand megawatts of solar energy by 2025, but without installed batteries, which prevents meeting nighttime demand and limits its effectiveness against persistent blackouts. The energy stabilization program also includes the repair of the country's thermoelectric plants, which have been the backbone of the. . On Saturday, Cuba initiated the installation of solar energy storage batteries at four electrical substations, marking a significant step in addressing its energy challenges. This effort, which involves establishing approximately fifty photovoltaic parks across the nation, aims to address Cuba's persistent energy. . Summary: The Santiago de Cuba Battery Energy Storage Project stands as a pioneering initiative to stabilize Cuba's power grid through advanced lithium-ion battery systems. This article explores active initiatives, their applications, and how companies like EK SOLAR contribute to Cuba's energy transition. .
