Argentina has taken a major step toward modernizing its energy infrastructure with the launch of a 500 MW battery energy storage system (BESS) tender under the AlmaGBA program.
In Argentina, the stance provides a good lesson to the European stakeholders, especially in the commercial and industrial segments of energy storage. Emerging markets can present both local and foreign players by developing tenders that are investment appropriate and clear technically and financially secured.
