ACEN Corp.’s subsidiary Giga Ace 8 Inc. is putting up a 420-megawattpeak solar farm in Barangays Bulawen and Salaza, Palauig, Zambales with 347-MWp battery energy storage system costing P26 billion.
“A major limitation of solar power plants is the inability to supply power during nighttime. To address this concern, a BESS will be charged solely from solar energy and is optimally charged during solar hours. The integration of this BESS with the solar plant will have an output of up to 200 MW, which is planned to be from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. or until the BESS is fully discharged,” Giga Ace 8 said.
Giga Ace 8 said it selected the 369.830-hectare Palauig project site because of its accessibility and potential solar irradiance.
