Credit: Canva Malaysia has marked a major milestone in its energy transition with the commissioning of its first utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) by Sarawak Energy. The 60 MW/82 MWh BESS, which was first energized in December 2024, is located at the Sejingkat Power Plant site—soon to be phased out after operating since 1998.
Outlook of energy storage system in Malaysia Energy storage is one of the emerging technologies which can store energy and deliver it upon meeting the energy demand of the load system.
The project marks Peninsular Malaysia’s first utility-scale battery storage project. Back in February, Tenaga had talked about a battery pilot project that it said would be “operated by Grid System Operator (GSO), and overseen by the EC”.
Sarawak Energy is also exploring its potential for integrating more solar power into the grid. The commissioning comes at a time when Malaysia is accelerating its renewable energy ambitions.
The project signals a new era for energy storage in Malaysia, as the country seeks advanced solutions to support its rising power demand and growing renewable energy sector. BESS technology plays a crucial role in grid stability, peak demand management, and integrating intermittent renewables like solar power.
The global commercial and industrial solar energy storage battery market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with demand increasing by over 400% in the past three years. Large-scale battery storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability goals and federal investment tax credits that reduce total system costs by 30-35%. Europe follows with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets are adopting commercial storage for peak shaving and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 3-6 years. Modern industrial installations now feature integrated systems with 50kWh to multi-megawatt capacity at costs below $500/kWh for complete energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar energy storage battery performance while reducing costs for commercial applications. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal performance with 50% less energy loss, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $1,000/kW to $550/kW since 2022. Smart integration features now allow industrial systems to operate as virtual power plants, increasing business savings by 40% through time-of-use optimization and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage protection and thermal management systems have reduced insurance premiums by 30% for commercial storage installations. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple battery additions at just $450/kWh for incremental storage. 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 standard industrial systems (50-100kWh) starting at $25,000 and premium systems (200-500kWh) from $100,000, with flexible financing options available for businesses.
