As a leading Battery Energy Storage System Solutions Provider, we are proud to announce the successful commissioning of a 3.6MWh lithium-ion battery energy storage project for a large abalone processing factory on the South African coast.
This project marks a significant milestone for us on the African continent, perfectly demonstrating how our expertise and tailored solutions can help clients overcome complex energy challenges.
The Challenge and Our Solution
The abalone factory faced severe “load shedding” issues in South Africa. Frequent power outages not only disrupted production but also caused significant economic losses for a business that relies on uninterrupted refrigeration and precise operations. Traditional diesel generators provided backup but came with high fuel costs and environmental pollution.
Our team conducted a deep analysis of the factory’s energy consumption patterns and needs, delivering a customized solution that included:
- An Integrated Energy Storage System: We provided an all-in-one solution that integrates the battery, inverter, and energy management system. This system can intelligently charge during off-peak hours and seamlessly switch to providing power during outages or peak demand, ensuring the factory’s production line runs without interruption.
- Maximized Cost-Effectiveness: Using a precise peak-shaving strategy, the system leverages the difference between peak and off-peak electricity rates in South Africa. This helped the client significantly reduce electricity costs while minimizing their reliance on expensive and polluting diesel generators.
- High Reliability and Safety: We employed an industry-leading Battery Management System (BMS) and multiple safety protection mechanisms, ensuring the entire energy storage system operates reliably and safely over the long term, even in a harsh coastal environment.
Our Commitment
The successful delivery of this project reaffirms our ability to provide efficient, reliable, and cost-effective energy storage solutions worldwide. We firmly believe that energy storage technology is a key driver of the global energy transition.
Moving forward, we will continue to partner with clients globally to provide customized solutions that address their energy challenges, working together to build a more sustainable and resilient energy future.
