Mexico's new binding power plan mandates a massive state-led clean energy buildout, using 5 GW of battery storage to stabilize the grid. This move, announced by Jorge Islas, Undersecretary for Planning and Energy Transition, aligns Mexico with global efforts. . The new rule requires solar and wind power plants to include battery systems with a capacity equivalent to 30% of their installed power, aiming to add 574 MW of storage by 2028. Electric energy storage has become a crucial component in the transition to more sustainable, reliable and efficient energy systems. In Mexico, this concept has taken on greater relevance. . The report explains that Mexican regulations define five storage modalities -linked to renewable energy plants, load centers, and independent solutions – and formally recognize these systems through interconnection rights, permits, and participation in energy and ancillary services markets.

Spain's Royal Decree 917/2025, effective Nov. 16, 2025, reorganizes grid-access priorities by recognizing storage as a flexibility resource, grants renewables top dispatch rights, expands telemetry for storage and hybrids, and refines profitability rules. . The government of Spain has chosen the 143 energy storage projects that will receive capex support from an EU-backed scheme, totalling nearly 9GWh of capacity. Spain's environment minister Sara Aagesen (pictured above) announced that nearly €840 million (US$964 million) would be awarded to the. . Spain continues to adjust policy and make sweeping changes to both prevent a reoccurence of a major blackout, while supporting standalone storage and hybrid projects. From ESS News Spain has formally recognized energy storage as a key technology for supporting grid. . Spain's government has approved a royal decree to reinforce the resilience and stability of the national grid, in a renewed effort to pass measures aimed at preventing a new system-wide shutdown.

A new regulatory proposal from the Colombian government outlines the technical and commercial rules for energy storage assets. The framework targets both the national grid and remote microgrids to handle increasing climatic variability. Colombia's energy transition is entering a new and decisive stage. While the country continues to expand its renewable energy portfolio. . The new mechanism introduces technology-specific products, extends commissioning deadlines to 2035, and formally recognises energy storage as a core asset for power system reliability. With 84% of its electricity already coming from hydroelectric plants [1], Colombia isn't. .

Abstract—This paper deals with the simplified economic evaluation of the peak shaving by a battery-based energy storage system in plants with cyclic load profile (typically steel plants) and its own electrical energy source – typically the steam turbine. . These systems act as shock absorbers for electricity flows, addressing three critical challenges: A mid-sized plant in Izmir implemented a 20MW/80MWh lithium-ion battery system with EK SOLAR 's intelligent management platform. The industry provides good-paying jobs across the U. Department of Energy's (DOE) Energy Storage Grand Challenge is a comprehensive program that seeks to accelerate. . This publication is released as the first of three in a series on the appraisal of battery energy storage systems (BESS) by UCL ISR's Centre for Net Zero Market Design, for the European Investment Bank. Each of these technologies offers distinct advantages and challenges within the context of a steel plant's energy demands.
