The first phase of the project is expected to create over 2,000 jobs. In terms of energy storage projects, Morocco is actively introducing battery energy storage systems (BESS) to complement renewable energy. Several Chinese companies are involved in this.
The projects are spearheaded by the Moroccan Agency for Sustainable Energy (MASEN) and Morocco’s national electricity company ONEE. On May 20, 2025, MASEN received financing approval from the World Bank for its "Morocco Energy Storage Testbed Project", aiming to enhance grid stability.
Morocco is accelerating its energy transition by issuing a global call for expressions of interest to build two large-scale battery storage facilities. The projects are spearheaded by the Moroccan Agency for Sustainable Energy (MASEN) and Morocco’s national electricity company ONEE.
According to Official Account @Storage Discover, according to a report on the website of the Ministry of Commerce of China, to enhance its energy storage capacity, the electricity branch of Morocco's National Office of Electricity and Drinking Water (ONEE) has recently issued a letter of intent for a tender.
The Port Moresby Power Station will provide reliable power to Port Moresby and is the lowest cost dedicated grid connected thermal generation in the country. Replacing heavy fuel oil and diesel, the gas-fired power plant also brings a material reduction in the environmental impact from power generation in PNG.
PORT MORESBY – In a significant boost to Papua New Guinea’s (PNG) infrastructure, the United States has awarded a contract valued at approximately US$400 million (around K1.6 billion) for the development of a major fuel storage facility in Port Moresby.
“This project reflects the strength of our bilateral relationship and is the result of ongoing dialogue and collaboration with PNG,” Yastishock said. The facility is designed to hold more than 1.6 million barrels—or about 264 million litres—of fuel, significantly boosting PNG’s energy security.
US Ambassador Ann Marie Yastishock announced that the investment was initiated in response to a formal request from the PNG Government. She highlighted that the facility would not only meet the country's fuel storage demands but also enhance the diversity of fuel options available in the market.
An energy storage system (ESS) for electricity generation uses electricity (or some other energy source, such as solar-thermal energy) to charge an energy storage system or device, which is discharged to supply (generate) electricity when needed at desired levels and quality. ESSs provide a variety of services to support electric power grids.
Electrical energy storage systems (ESS) commonly support electric grids. Types of energy storage systems include: Pumped hydro storage, also known as pumped-storage hydropower, can be compared to a giant battery consisting of two water reservoirs of differing elevations.
Variable power is produced by several renewable energy sources, including solar and wind. Storage systems can help to balance out the supply and demand imbalances that this produces. Electricity must be used promptly when it is generated or transformed into storable forms.
Zakeri and Syri also report that the most cost-efficient energy storage systems are pumped hydro and compressed air energy systems for bulk energy storage, and flywheels for power quality and frequency regulation applications.

The 2-hour battery energy storage system (BESS) is the largest in Hungary, Switzerland-headquartered MET Group said, deployed at its Dunamenti thermal power plant in Százhalombatta, near Budapest.
The new facility supports a growing push to green Hungary’s power grid. Hungary has just switched on its largest battery energy storage system (BESS) to date, stepping up its role in Central Europe’s growing grid-scale energy transition.
MET Group has switched on Hungary’s largest battery, a 40 MW/80 MWh system, at the site of a power station near Budapest. From ESS News Swiss-based energy company MET Group has officially inaugurated Hungary’s largest standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) at its Dunamenti Power Station in Százhalombatta, located close to Budapest.
The new facility boasts a total power output of 40 MW and a storage capacity of 80 MWh. This project significantly expands MET Group’s energy storage portfolio in Hungary. It joins a smaller 4 MW / 8 MWh demonstrator BESS, which utilizes Tesla Megapack 2 batteries and was installed at the same site in 2022.
