6 FAQs about [Burkina Faso bess ancillary services]
Does Bess support ancillary services in active distribution systems?
Furthermore, the inclusion of BESS with high renewables has encouraged utilities to adopt various ancillary services in active distribution systems. In the proposed model, the two-level optimization framework is suggested for the optimal deployment and operational management of various DER.
What ancillary services are covered by Bess?
A study examined and presented the application of BESS for multiple ancillary services, including voltage regulation, congestion relief, demand response, self consumption, energy arbitrage, and frequency regulation in Maeyaert et al. (2020). Some common ancillary services such as power smoothing, peak shaving and black-start were not covered.
Can Burkina Faso achieve 95% electricity access?
The country aims to reach 95% electricity access, with 50% in rural areas and universal access to clean cooking solutions in urban areas, with 65% in rural areas by 2030, up from 9% in 2020. The utilisation of Burkina Faso’s renewable resource potential would enable the country to reduce its heavy reliance on thermal generation and energy imports.
