A planned battery energy storage system for Mongolia will be the largest of its type in the world and provide a blueprint for other developing countries to follow as they decarbonize their power systems. . s in renewable energy development. As of 2023, the country has three operational wind farms, nine solar farms, and several small hydropower plants, which collectively account for 18. 3% of the total installed capacity but only 9. Mongolia's energy sector faces several challenges, including its vast and sparsely populated landsc pe, outdated energy infrastructure, and high dependence on coal-based district heating systems. Many. . In a statement, the ADB said it aims to develop about 115 megawatts of solar photovoltaic capacity and 65 megawatts/237 megawatt-hours of battery energy storage systems (BESS) across the country's Western and Eastern Energy Systems. This will be one of Mongolia's largest renewable energy. . As of 2024, approximately 91% of Mongolia's electricity still comes from coal and CHP plants—a legacy of its Soviet-era, centrally managed energy system and the practical need to ensure reliable heat and power through long, harsh winters. This can be achieved through either hydroelectric power or battery. .
