South Korea is ramping up its battery energy storage deployment with a new 540MW tender to stabilize the grid and support renewable energy growth. Learn how this move strengthens both domestic resilience and global market leadership.
Less than a decade ago, South Korean companies held over half of the global energy storage system (ESS) market with the rushed promise of helping secure a more sustainable energy future. However, a string of ESS-related fires and a lack of infrastructure had dampened investments in this market.
The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy unveiled plans for a nationwide tender to install 540 megawatts of battery energy storage systems (BESS), marking the country's first major government-led deployment of its kind. The project is part of a broader effort to modernize South Korea’s power grid and support the transition to renewable energy.
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.
