YESS Power, in partnership with Cubenergy and Mey Energy, has launched North Macedonia's first large-scale solar and battery storage project. The 30 MW battery energy storage system (BESS) is co-located with the 55 MW Novaci solar power plant, which generates 85 GWh per year.

This initiative signifies a shift towards more sustainable energy in the Western Balkans, particularly as it is located near coal industry operations. North Macedonia has approved 77 additional projects for co-located batteries, with an estimated combined capacity of over 2 GW and nearly 5 GWh of storage, valued at EUR 1.98 billion.
