Further details about Brazil's largest battery storage project to date have been revealed including its integrators and equipment providers.

Changes to Brazil's first capacity reserve auction of 2025 could undermine the expansion of the procurement regime to include battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the second exercise of the year, according to Markus Vlasits, chairman of Brazil's energy storage trade body.
With well-designed policies and regulations, Brazil has significant potential to follow in the footsteps of jurisdictions like California and Chile for large-scale battery storage, Germany for distributed and large-scale storage, and Australia for both pumped hydro and large-scale battery systems.
ISO CTEEP claimed it as the first large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) on Brazil's transmission grid. The project required a total US$27 million investment. The transmission operator is permitted by regulations to earn up to US$5 million revenues from the asset each year.
Despite being the largest solar PV market in South America, with over 47GW of capacity installed – as of August 2024 – according to solar trade body Absolar, Brazil lags behind Chile when it comes to energy storage. Since Chile passed a major energy storage bill, gigawatts of energy storage co-located with solar PV are being built in the country.
Conclusion Although energy storage solutions have yet to be widely deployed in Brazil, generation flexibility remains a scarce commodity. Therefore, storage projects, including pumped hydro, could be the missing piece needed to enhance the country's energy system.
