According to the Burkina Faso government's roadmap, by deploying 60-70 MW (160-220 MWh) of independent battery electricity storage solutions (i-BESS), the energy sector could potentially save between 800 million and 1. 7 million) per year, while reducing CO2 emissions.
The Government of Burkina Faso has signed a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) agreement with a local developer and a Dutch clean energy investment firm to develop a major solar and battery storage system.
The project involves the construction of a 25 MW solar power plant at the Donsin airport site, located in the council of Loumbila in central Burkina Faso. Additionally, a 5 MW/20 MWh battery electricity storage system will be installed.

This project will include design and calculation of a 10 MW Solar farm and a 10 MW battery storage by implementing the latest smart inverter technology.
A standard 20-foot shipping container houses two flywheel energy storage systems, providing 3 MWh of total capacity. The system integrates seamlessly with existing infrastructure through standard grid connections and communication protocols.
Lithium ion continues to dominate thanks to efficiency and compact design, while flow batteries are emerging as a promising long-life option. Careful sizing and inverter integration ensure that whichever technology a business chooses, it maximizes the return on its solar investment.
The CPUC's Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) offers rebates for installing energy storage technology at both residential and non-residential facilities. These storage technologies include battery storage systems that can function during a power outage.
