The UAE has installed most of the energy storage systems in the GCC region. In 2016, Abu Dhabi Water & Electricity Authority announced the deployment of around 108 MW of sodium-sulfur-based BESS with an individual capacity of around 4 MW and 8 MW at diferent locations to support their distribution network.
Adopt a comprehensive regulatory framework with specific energy storage targets in national energy policies by setting achievable targets and timelines to drive energy storage deployment. Energy and electricity laws and regulations should account for the deployment of energy storage and be amended accordingly.
The governments in the GCC region could collaborate with energy storage developers to introduce favorable regulations and provide capital investments to support the development of a utility-scale energy storage market and eliminate the financing risk and uncertainty factor for the projects by providing long-term contracts through auctions.
Electrochemical storage (batteries) will be the leading energy storage solution in MENA in the short to medium terms, led by sodium-sulfur (NaS) and lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries.
The transformation of the energy structure in the Middle East is accelerating, and the demand for new energy storage is strong. Major countries attract investment in energy storage projects by

This article explores the key GCC requirements for energy storage exports, providing guidance on certifications, technical standards, and market expectations.
The report includes scenario analyses for Saudi Arabia, UAE, Israel, and South Africa and a broader overview of trends across the rest of the MEA region.
Adopt a comprehensive regulatory framework with specific energy storage targets in national energy policies by setting achievable targets and timelines to drive energy storage deployment.
It would be crucial to introduce regulations that are favorable for energy storage such as defining it as a separate asset and clarifying the ownership regulations and regulations for participating in
