BOS home storage units are designed to make solar energy available at any time – at night, during bad weather or in the event of a power outage.

How long does a battery last in Chile?

Moreover, the lack of an ancillary services market in Chile discourages shorter duration batteries (1-2 hours) as seen in the US and Europe. The general industry consensus is to maximize the availability of the battery and focus on 2-3 revenue streams instead of 4 to 5 (e.g., energy arbitrage, capacity payment, and frequency reserve).

How much does a battery cost in Chile?

In fact, batteries charged at nearly $0/MWh during the day in the sunny, northern desert regions of Chile, sell energy at night for over $100/MWh. Although projects such as Engie’s BESS Coya are already enjoying these large spreads, this capacity payment will partially de-risk Chile’s dependence on volatile, but still profitable, merchant revenues.
