Panitan, Capiz, Philippines — The 20 MW/40 MWh Panitan Energy Storage System has reached mechanical completion, marking an important milestone for renewable energy development in the Visayas and the first battery energy storage facility in the Province of Capiz.
Developed by EcoSolar Energy Corporation, a renewable energy company under the Yuchengco Group, the project is equipped with Huawei Digital Power’s advanced utility-scale energy storage solution. Completed within seven months, the facility will proceed to testing and commissioning following the completion of the necessary regulatory requirements.
The two-hour battery energy storage system is designed to store electricity during periods of lower demand or abundant power supply and release it when demand increases. Once operational, it will provide fast-response reserve capacity, help manage fluctuations in electricity supply and demand, and contribute to improved stability and reliability of the Panay-Guimaras-Negros power grid.
The project features Huawei Digital Power’s LUNA2000-5015-2S Smart String Grid-Forming Energy Storage System. The solution combines lithium iron phosphate battery technology, intelligent digital management, liquid cooling, advanced safety protection and grid-forming capabilities to support reliable and efficient system operation.
As more solar and other variable renewable energy resources are connected to the Philippine power system, energy storage will play an increasingly important role in balancing generation and consumption. It can help reduce renewable energy curtailment, strengthen grid resilience and provide additional support during power supply shortages or grid disturbances.
The Panitan Energy Storage System also complements EcoSolar’s planned solar power development in Capiz. The combination of solar generation and battery storage can enable renewable electricity produced during the day to be stored and dispatched when it is most needed by the grid.
Through the Panitan project, Huawei Digital Power continues to work with local energy partners to advance a safer, smarter and more resilient power infrastructure. The project demonstrates how digital technology, power electronics and grid-forming energy storage can support the Philippines’ transition towards a cleaner and more reliable energy future.
