Manila Container Generator BESS

With the commercial operations of approximately 1,000 MW of BESS facilities across 32 locations in the Philippines, we are now ushering in a new era for the Philippine energy industry through significant improvements in grid reliability and the integration of more renewable power sources to the country's diverse energy mix.

The Battery energy storage system (BESS) container are based on a modular design. They can be configured to match the required power and capacity requirements of client's application. The battery energy storage systems are based on standard sea freight containers starting from kW/kWh (single container) up to MW/MWh (combining multiple containers).

MANILA, Philippines — San Miguel Corp. (SMC) is targeting to complete this year a nationwide battery energy storage systems (BESS) network with a combined capacity of 1,000 megawatt hours that will propel the Philippines as one of the world's leaders in the use of BESS technologies.

We are operating BESS facilities at 32 locations in the Philippines, across the regions of Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Overall, we are putting up approximately 1,000 MW of BESS facilities, which will help ensure the reliability of the grid, especially in areas that are in most need of power quality solutions.

BESS technology, which enables the storage of energy both from renewable and non- renewable sources, was pioneered in the Philippines in 2016 by what is now SMC's Masinloc power facility. The pioneering BESS project introduced the use of advanced lithium-ion battery technologies in the Philippines and Southeast Asia.
