Create an Energy Storage Alliance in MENA supported by governments and the private sector to foster the development of ESS in the region, by enhancing public-private partnerships. A key objective of this alliance is to foster the development of ESS in the region through experience sharing and standardization.
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.
However, new technology in the form of advanced adiabatic compressed air energy storage (AA-CAES) enabled the medium to long term storage of electricity, with zero emissions. It employed heat recovered from the compression of air to heat the expansion process.
The pace of integration of energy storage systems in MENA is driven by three main factors: 1) the technical need associated with the accelerated deployment of renewables, 2) the technological advancements driving ESS cost competitiveness, and 3) the policy support and power markets evolution that incentivizes investments.
