Georgia Power first examined energy storage in its 2019 IRP, with approval to build, own and operate 80 MW of BESS at the time. Tristan is an Electrical Engineer with experience in consulting and public sector works in plant procurement. He has previously been Managing Editor and Founding Editor of tech and other publications in Australia.
Also notable is that Georgia Power is looking at longer duration energy storage, with 3,000 MW per year of 4-hour energy storage is projected to be added starting in 2028, while 3,000 MW per year of 12-hour energy storage is planned from 2033. Small-scale BESS boost
The Law on the State of Emergency (2005) defines and regulates emergency response, but Georgia has no declared strategy for emergency stockholding or fuel switching mechanisms for energy supply disruptions. The government estimates that Georgia's minimum strategic reserve for gas should be 120 mcm and is considering various storage options.
According to the draft National Energy Policy, the government is planning to improve Georgia's energy security by 2030 by: Diversifying external energy supply sources, including gas supply alternatives (i.e. LPG, LNG and CNG swapping options). Reducing import dependency through energy efficiency and renewable energy development.
