OVERVIEW
Kenya-specific grid challenges, storage opportunity mapping, and front-of-meter vs behind-the-meter analysis.
Storage decisions
- What MW/MWh size matches the service: backup, shifting, curtailment recovery, or grid support?
- How will cycling, degradation, safety, warranty, and replacements affect lifecycle value?
- Should the project use new batteries, second-life batteries, modular BESS, or mobile BESS?
BESS outputs
- BESS sizing and operating-use-case matrix
- SOC, cycle, degradation, and replacement assumptions
- Safety, standards, and site-readiness checklist
- Lifecycle cost and implementation pathway
Storage inputs
- Load/generation profile and target use case
- Backup duration, export limits, and tariff/revenue assumptions
- Battery chemistry, SOH, warranty, and safety requirements
- Site constraints, temperature, access, and O&M assumptions
