Capacity of mobile energy storage system in Mongolia

Currently the energy system of Mongolia is largely dependent on coal, and combined heat and power plants (CHPs) are the major energy supply for both power and heating. Mongolia lacks access to moderately priced liquid fuels and natural gas, which are mainly imported from Russia.

Since Mongolia's energy sector reform in 2001, the CES has been unbundled into generation, transmission, and distribution subsectors; and the government has introduced a single-buyer model for market-oriented sector operations. The Law on Investment was amended in 2015 to support private sector investment in energy infrastructure.

Power demand is expected to grow at 133 megawatt (MW) per annum from 697 MW in 2012 to 3,161 MW in 2030. To address the widening supply-demand gap and to strengthen energy independence in a sustainable manner, the Government of Mongolia has brought forward a series of policies to increase the share of renewables in the energy mix.

Energy security and sustainable development are the two major challenges in Mongolia. Accelerating renewable energy penetration by increasing both the share of renewables in the energy mix and their capacity factors is vital for Mongolia to develop sustainable energy infrastructure and achieve energy independence.

14 N-1 standard criterion is a design philosophy to enable the stable power supply in case of loss of a single power facility, such as a transformer and a transmission line. In conclusion, the BESS capacity was 125 MW/160 MWh.15 Table 4 summarizes the major applications of the BESS in Mongolia. Load shifting.

Mongolia's heavily coal-dependent energy sector needs a BESS to achieve its decarbonization target. Coal-dependent energy system. As of end 2021, Mongolia had 1,549 megawatts (MW) of installed power generation capacity.
