Energy Storage and Green Hydrogen Development Project

The project aims to improve energy security, reduce Georgia's reliance on grid stability support from neighboring countries, and pave the way for greater private sector participation. The project will enhance electricity grid's ability to integrate higher level of renewable energy by adding a 200MW/200MWh Battery Enabled Storage System (BESS) to its transmission network at the Ksani Substation near Tbilisi. The project will also introduce improvements in the legal and regulatory framework necessary for acknowledgement and inclusion of storage technologies like BESS and green hydrogen into the network. This will facilitate private sector investments in renewable energy penetration as well as the development of larger BESS facilities and green hydrogen.
