Sri Lanka launches international tender for 250 MW / 1,000 MWh of battery storage

SolarNews Brief

The Board of Investment of Sri Lanka announced the tender, which seeks distributed battery systems across 25 grid substation locations rather than one single plant. The 1,000 MWh duration makes the tender material for peak management, renewable integration and grid reliability.
