Africa GreenCo Group (GreenCo) has launched a Request for Information (RFI) for the supply of up to 25MW/100MWh of energy storage capacity from a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in Zambia.
The initiative marks a critical step in strengthening the country’s grid stability and accelerating renewable energy integration.
In a statement, GreenCo emphasized the significance of the project in advancing Zambia’s energy infrastructure.
“This RFI represents an exciting step forward in supporting renewable energy integration and enhancing grid stability in Zambia,” the company stated.
The RFI process is open to BESS operators and EPC contractors, with interested parties required to register online.
Those who meet the screening criteria will receive detailed participation instructions.
According to GreenCo, the RFI aims to identify viable battery energy storage providers, evaluate technical solutions, obtain indicative pricing, and refine the project’s procurement structure.
Additionally, feedback from stakeholders will help shape the final Request for Proposal (RFP) expected in the second half of 2025.
GreenCo has set a submission deadline of March 15, 2025, after which applicants will be notified of the results.
The company clarified that participation in the RFI does not guarantee a contract award but will be a key factor in the upcoming competitive procurement process.
