The power utility said the first phase, which was set to be completed by 30 June 2023, will be commissioned over the “next three months”.
Eskom has revealed that its Battery Energy Storage System project is almost five months behind schedule, with the first phase only expected to be commissioned in November 2023.
“Phase 1 is not complete but the commissioning of the first three sites will be done over the next three months,” the power utility said. The power utility said the batteries will be charged from the main grid through Eskom’s Elandskop substation once completed. “The beginning of the construction of the Elandskop BESS is a positive development in our efforts to alleviate the pressure on the national electricity grid,” said André de Ruyter, then-CEO of Eskom.
