Powering the Grid: South Korea''s 2025 ESS Auction
South Korea launches 2025 ESS auction offering 540 MW capacity with 15-year contracts. Learn key requirements, selection criteria, and post-award restrictions.
Deploying long-duration storage will allow Korea to capture surplus renewable energy during these off-peak periods and shift it to peak demand hours, reducing curtailment and maximizing asset utilization. This tender fits within South Korea's broader decarbonization roadmap.
SEOUL, May 27 (UPI) -- Texas-based CPS Energy plans to team up with two South Korean companies to collaborate on a large-sized energy storage system project. OCI Holdings announced Tuesday that its U.S. subsidiary, OCI Energy, signed a three-party memorandum of understanding with CPS Energy and LG Energy Solution.
Interestingly, South Korea's approach differs from some Western markets where subsidies or mandates drive storage growth. Instead, Korea is leaning into competitive contracting, using central tenders to attract cost-efficient and technically robust projects.
