These intermittent energy sources required effective energy storage solutions to ensure grid stability and reliability. The rapid decline in battery costs\u2014over 90% since 2010\u2014had made large-scale energy storage more feasible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Initiatives such as South Africa\u2019s Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project, funded by the Bank, aimed to support grid stability and manage peak demand. The project included large-scale utility batteries with a daily capacity of 1,440 MWh and 60 MW of solar PV. The Bank was also funding a technical feasibility, policy, and regulatory diagnostics study for the adoption and implementation of grid-connected BESS in Nigeria. Additionally, during COP28, several African countries expressed interest in joining the Battery Energy Storage Systems Consortium, aiming to transform Africa\u2019s energy landscape through advanced energy storage solutions. However, regulatory frameworks governing energy storage remained underdeveloped across many African countries, creating barriers to investment and deployment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The webinar addressed key regulatory challenges and opportunities in the energy storage sector. It explored policy frameworks, market incentives, and technical standards needed to foster innovation and attract investment. The session also highlighted successful case studies from African nations and international markets, offering insights into best practices for establishing a regulatory environment that supported the scaling up of energy storage solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-esab-accordion esab-xenausgk\" data-mode=\"global\"><div class=\"esab__container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-esab-accordion-child\"><div class=\"esab__head\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\"><div class=\"esab__heading_txt\"><p class=\"esab__heading_tag\">Webinar Recording <\/p><\/div><div class=\"esab__icon\"><div class=\"esab__collapse\"> <svg version=\"1.2\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"m3.5 20.5c-4.7-4.7-4.7-12.3 0-17 4.7-4.7 12.3-4.7 17 0 4.6 4.7 4.6 12.3 0 17-4.7 4.6-12.3 4.6-17 0zm0.9-0.9c4.2 4.2 11 4.2 15.2 0 4.2-4.2 4.2-11 0-15.2-4.2-4.3-11-4.3-15.2 0-4.3 4.2-4.3 11 0 15.2z\"><\/path><path d=\"m11.4 15.9v-3.3h-3.3c-0.3 0-0.6-0.3-0.6-0.6 0-0.4 0.3-0.6 0.6-0.6h3.3v-3.3c0-0.3 0.3-0.6 0.6-0.6 0.3 0 0.6 0.3 0.6 0.6v3.3h3.3c0.3 0 0.6 0.2 0.6 0.6q0 0.2-0.2 0.4-0.2 0.2-0.4 0.2h-3.3v3.3q0 0.2-0.2 0.4-0.2 0.2-0.4 0.2c-0.4 0-0.6-0.3-0.6-0.6z\"><\/path><\/svg> <\/div><div class=\"esab__expand\"> <svg version=\"1.2\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"m12 24c-6.6 0-12-5.4-12-12 0-6.6 5.4-12 12-12 6.6 0 12 5.4 12 12 0 6.6-5.4 12-12 12zm10.6-12c0-5.9-4.7-10.6-10.6-10.6-5.9 0-10.6 4.7-10.6 10.6 0 5.9 4.7 10.6 10.6 10.6 5.9 0 10.6-4.7 10.6-10.6z\"><\/path><path d=\"m5.6 11.3h12.8v1.4h-12.8z\"><\/path><\/svg> <\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"esab__body\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Webinaire ASR : R\u00e9glementer le stockage de l&#039;\u00e9nergie en Afrique\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/52UNbmcT4I0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-esab-accordion-child\"><div class=\"esab__head\" role=\"button\" aria-expanded=\"false\"><div class=\"esab__heading_txt\"><p class=\"esab__heading_tag\">Ordre du jour<\/p><\/div><div class=\"esab__icon\"><div class=\"esab__collapse\"> <svg version=\"1.2\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"m3.5 20.5c-4.7-4.7-4.7-12.3 0-17 4.7-4.7 12.3-4.7 17 0 4.6 4.7 4.6 12.3 0 17-4.7 4.6-12.3 4.6-17 0zm0.9-0.9c4.2 4.2 11 4.2 15.2 0 4.2-4.2 4.2-11 0-15.2-4.2-4.3-11-4.3-15.2 0-4.3 4.2-4.3 11 0 15.2z\"><\/path><path d=\"m11.4 15.9v-3.3h-3.3c-0.3 0-0.6-0.3-0.6-0.6 0-0.4 0.3-0.6 0.6-0.6h3.3v-3.3c0-0.3 0.3-0.6 0.6-0.6 0.3 0 0.6 0.3 0.6 0.6v3.3h3.3c0.3 0 0.6 0.2 0.6 0.6q0 0.2-0.2 0.4-0.2 0.2-0.4 0.2h-3.3v3.3q0 0.2-0.2 0.4-0.2 0.2-0.4 0.2c-0.4 0-0.6-0.3-0.6-0.6z\"><\/path><\/svg> <\/div><div class=\"esab__expand\"> <svg version=\"1.2\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"m12 24c-6.6 0-12-5.4-12-12 0-6.6 5.4-12 12-12 6.6 0 12 5.4 12 12 0 6.6-5.4 12-12 12zm10.6-12c0-5.9-4.7-10.6-10.6-10.6-5.9 0-10.6 4.7-10.6 10.6 0 5.9 4.7 10.6 10.6 10.6 5.9 0 10.6-4.7 10.6-10.6z\"><\/path><path d=\"m5.6 11.3h12.8v1.4h-12.8z\"><\/path><\/svg> <\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"esab__body\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Temps<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Sujette<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Conf\u00e9renci\u00e8re<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>13:00-13:10<\/td><td>Accueil et introduction \u2013 Allocutions d'ouverture &nbsp; &nbsp;<\/td><td>Mod\u00e9ratrice \u2013 Rhoda Mshana, Sp\u00e9cialiste de la r\u00e9glementation \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique ; M.
