PT Sembcorp Renewables Indonesia, a wholly owned subsidiary of Singapore-headquartered engineering firm Sembcorp, and state-owned PT PLN Nusantara Renewables have launched a utility-scale solar-plus-storage project in Indonesia.

Sembcorp has successfully bid into a Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) tender to build a large-scale solar PV project paired with battery storage.

Singapore’s government and Energy Market Authority have announced power sector and grid enhancements, including a possible expansion of Southeast Asia’s biggest battery storage plant.

Sembcorp has pulled the plug on Indonesia solar-plus-storage project, shortly after completing Southeast Asia’s biggest battery storage project.

Sembcorp is building 200MWh of battery storage systems on Singapore’s Jurong Island, home to much of the country’s industrial activity.
