The Erongo Battery Energy Storage System, also Erongo BESS, is a planned 58 MW (78,000 hp) battery energy storage system installation in Namibia. The BESS, the first of its kind in the country and in the Southern African region, will be capable of providing 72MWh of clean energy to the Namibian grid. .
The BESS unit would be located at the site of 's Omburu Substation, approximately 12 kilometres (7 mi), southeast of the city of in the , in central Namibia. The geographical. .
The BESS station is under development by the , who own the station. The development receives support (financial and technical) from the (KfW).. .
The BESS station has storage capacity of 58 megawatts. Its design allows for a discharge capacity of 72MWh of energy into the Namibian grid. The BESS is expected to store "locally generated renewable power as well as electricity imported from the .
