Is Guatemala a good place to invest in solar energy?
Guatemala is the second largest Central American power market, with a goal to increase renewable energy use. Relatively high levels of solar irradiance and large areas of cleared land give the country a strong potential for increased solar energy development.
Does Colombia have a power purchase agreement for hybrid solar & Bess projects?
As of now, Colombia’s reliability charge (Cargo por Confiabilidad) has encouraged hybrid solar + BESS projects to progress. Large energy companies have expressed that there are no Power Purchasing Agreements (PPAs) available specifically for stand-alone storage projects, making it harder to finance those projects.
Does Mexico have a Bess market?
Mexico’s FTM BESS market is practically nonexistent. BESS is not defined by law but rather by the market. Storage projects must register as an active plant (“central electrica”) and be represented by a market participant, in this case, a generator. Hence, they pay transmission and other charges, making stand-alone projects unprofitable.
Why did BMR decide to buy a solar farm in Guatemala?
