This project marks a significant milestone as Terra is poised to become the largest integrated photovoltaic and energy storage power station in Southeast Asia.
Strategically located in the Philippines, the comprehensive development is designed to harness substantial renewable energy resources, boasting a total planned capacity of 3.5 gigawatts (GW) of photovoltaic (PV) power and 4.5 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of energy storage.
Indonesia follows suit with the state’s electricity company, Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN), targeting the pumped-storage hydroelectric power plant (PLTA) Cisokan, West Java, to start operating by 2025. This pumped storage will store a total capacity of 1000 MW which becomes the first and only pumped storage in the country.
A massive planned buildout of pumped storage hydropower (PSH) in Eastern Asia, driven by China, would allow this region to single-handedly meet the International Renewable Energy Agency’s (IRENA) 1.5°C Scenario target of 420 gigawatts of pumped storage worldwide by 2050, according to new data from Global Energy Monitor.
The ASEAN bloc has set the targets of 23% renewable energy in its Total Primary Energy Supply (TPES) and 35% renewable energy in ASEAN installed power capacity by 2025. This means that energy storage is required. Additionally, without BESS acceptance on a larger level, the needed funds won’t materialise, and fewer BESS will be built.
First Gen Hydro Power, one of the leading providers of clean and renewable power in the Philippines, is currently investing US$124.89 million to develop a storage project with a total capacity of 120 megawatts (MW), namely, the Aya pumped hydro storage in Pantabangan, which could store eight hours straight of energy.
The global solar storage container market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 200% in the past two years. Pre-fabricated containerized solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new utility-scale storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 40% market share, driven by streamlined permitting processes and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 15-25%. Europe follows closely with 32% market share, where standardized container designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with China's manufacturing scale reducing container prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting mobile container solutions for rapid electrification, with typical payback periods of 3-5 years. Major projects now deploy clusters of 20+ containers creating storage farms with 100+MWh capacity at costs below $280/kWh.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar storage container performance while reducing costs. Next-generation thermal management systems maintain optimal operating temperatures with 40% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $80/kWh to $45/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple containers to operate as coordinated virtual power plants, increasing revenue potential by 25% through peak shaving and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and gas detection systems have reduced insurance premiums by 30% for container-based projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple container additions at just $210/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial projects typically achieving payback in 4-7 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show 20ft containers (1-2MWh) starting at $350,000 and 40ft containers (3-6MWh) from $650,000, with volume discounts available for large orders.
