Nairobi, Kenya – July 2025 — The Kenya Electricity Generating Company (KenGen) has officially commissioned its first Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) to power a modular data center in Nairobi, marking a major milestone in the country's clean energy transition. First reported by the Citizen, the system, which has a capacity of 1. Digital Resilience: The BESS. Kenya's plans to host a $1 billion data centre backed by Microsoft and UAE-based G42 have stalled, after President William Ruto said the country lacks sufficient power capacity to support the project.

With $19 billion in planned investments and over 8. 5 GWh of battery storage capacity in development across the region, this sector offers unparalleled networking opportunities with key decision-makers driving ambitious national energy strategies, including Saudi Arabia's 2. 4 GW storage target and the UAE's 6 GW energy storage goal by 2036.
The Sahim Scheme was launched in May 2017 by the Oman Authority for Electricity Regulation (AER), now known as the Authority for Public Services Regulation (ASPR) and is structured in two phas.
This report explores the key dynamics shaping the battery market across the region: from the rise of lithium-ion and solid-state technologies to growing applications in energy storage, electric mobility, and industrial resilience.
Currently, NaS battery technology dominates the battery storage capacity in operation in MENA, particularly in the UAE, with a total of 108 MW/648 MWh projects developed by the Abu Dhabi Water and Electricity Authority (ADWEA).
Electrochemical energy storage, or batteries, are gaining traction in MENA, where out of the total on-grid ESS projects, 80% are of the battery type. However, this share constitutes only 7% of the operational ESS energy, equivalent to 677 MWh, the bulk of which is installed in the UAE.
Electrochemical storage (batteries) will be the leading energy storage solution in MENA in the short to medium terms, led by sodium-sulfur (NaS) and lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries.
In MENA, Li-Ion batteries have a significant share of the battery grid-scale applications coupled with solar energy systems. The operational capacities range from 0.1 MW in Morocco's Demostene Green Energy Park to 23 MW in Al Badiya Solar-Plus-Storage at Al-Mafraq in Jordan.
Pumped hydro storage (PHS) has the largest share of installed capacity in MENA at 55%, as compared to a global share of 90%. Pumped hydro storage is one of the oldest energy storage technologies, which explains its dominance in the global ESS market.
Although the energy storage market in MENA is bound to grow, several barriers exist that hinder the integration of ESS and the ramping up of investments. Financial, regulatory, and market barriers need to be addressed via policy tools that lay the foundations for an evolved power market to integrate the deployed ESS.
This landmark project, developed in partnership with Alfanar Projects, represents one of the largest BESS deployments in the Middle East and will play a pivotal role in advancing Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 by enhancing grid stability and renewable energy integration.
The multi-energy battery integrated cabinet integrates the battery photovoltaic controller, grid connection and off-grid, EMS, power distribution, air conditioning and fire protection in one stop, enabling the energy storage system to independently adjust the energy storage. It is delivered in a. In the thriving era of distributed energy and microgrids, the photovoltaic-storage hybrid grid-connected/off-grid integrated cabinet has emerged as a “smart bridge” connecting photovoltaic systems, energy storage, and loads. Its modular integrated design allows parallel operation of multiple cabinets.
