The South African government has acknowledged the potential of battery storage and has set ambitious targets for its deployment. The 2019 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) and Eskom’s Transmission Development Plan (TDP) project a need for 2GW to 6.6GW of battery storage capacity to be installed by 2032.
South Africa is already engaged in battery pack development and manufacture for industrial and stationary energy storage applications. Although the companies are still quite small, all have developed proprietary know-how in the form of pack designs, battery management systems (BMS), and software.
For typical South African households dealing with unpredictable power supply, a battery system between 5 kWh and 10 kWh usually meets the essential load demand. This range is ideal for backing up lighting, electronics, and refrigeration during power cuts, while also reducing long-term electricity costs.
The Southern African region is well endowed with most of the key battery minerals (Table 8). Clearly this could offer potential opportunities for the establishment of upstream activities and potential collaboration between African countries in the battery value chain. Table 9.
Some customers opt to install chinese 10 kWh lifepo4 solar battery packs, which strike a good balance between size and affordability for most mid-sized South African homes. These setups are based on typical usage and assume a focus on essential circuits. They can be scaled further if you want to go fully off-grid or add solar panels later.
It is analyzed that the South African battery storage market can be expected to grow from 270 MWh in 2020 to 9,700 MWh in 2030 under the base-case scenario and 15,000 MWh under the best-case scenario. In both cases, the electric vehicle (EV) sector is expected to drive the bulk of this growth.
