While the U.S. was expected to have nearly 60 GWh of installed battery capacity by the end of 2023, AMI estimates that Latin America had less than 1 GWH of operational BESS projects—a 60x difference. This large gap will be bridged at different speeds based on each country's specific regulations.
As of now, Colombia's reliability charge (Cargo por Confiabilidad) has encouraged hybrid solar + BESS projects to progress. Large energy companies have expressed that there are no Power Purchasing Agreements (PPAs) available specifically for stand-alone storage projects, making it harder to finance those projects.
Brazil's regulatory framework does not prohibit energy storage solutions, but there are currently no specific regulations on storage. At the end of 2023, most BESS applications in Brazil were behind the meter.
