Deal Analysis

Montenegro's largest electricity provider, EPCG, has again failed to secure bids for a battery energy storage system, canceling its second tender for a pilot project. This latest attempt, valued at just €75,000, sought a modest 100-130 kW pilot system to help manage grid stability. The lack of interest, despite Montenegro's rapid solar power expansion, points to significant challenges in developing local BESS procurement and supply chains. It raises questions about the viability of small-scale tenders in the region and EPCG's strategy for integrating new renewable capacity.
