BESS photovoltaic glass house in Monterrey Mexico

Does Colombia have a power purchase agreement for hybrid solar & Bess projects?

As of now, hybrid solar + BESS projects are progressing in Colombia due to the reliability charge (Cargo por Confiabilidad). However, large energy companies have reported that there are no Power Purchasing Agreements (PPAs) available specifically for stand-alone storage projects, making it harder to finance those projects.

What is the legal status of BESS in Mexico?

BESS is not defined by law but rather by the market in Mexico. Storage projects are forced to register as an active power plant (“central electrica”) and be represented by a market participant, in this case, a generator (e.g., IPP). Mexico’s front-of-the-meter BESS market is practically nonexistent.

What is Photovoltaic Glass?

Our photovoltaic glass offers a cutting-edge solution for both new construction and renovation projects. When integrated into ventilated façades, this glass enhances building aesthetics while providing key benefits such as radiation protection, thermal and acoustic insulation, and improved occupant comfort.

Should Bess storage be paired with large solar assets?

The Dominican Republic’s National Energy Commission (CNE) issued a resolution in February 2023 that requires BESS storage to be paired with large solar assets. However, the renumeration is not yet clear and developers are concerned about interconnection delays for their BESS assets.

Does Mexico have a front-of-the-meter Bess market?

Mexico’s front-of-the-meter BESS market is practically nonexistent.

What is amorphous silicon photovoltaic glass?

Amorphous silicon photovoltaic glass combines versatility with high performance. It ranges from fully opaque for maximum power generation to adjustable light transmittance levels. This solution enhances natural daylighting, provides unobstructed views, and effectively filters harmful ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) radiation.
