Sungrow, a company based in China, has recently inked a series of significant contracts with Algihaz Holding of Saudi Arabia, marking a historical achievement in the domain of grid-side energy storage. The deal comprises three separate projects, each with a 2.6 GWh capacity, cumulatively reaching an impressive 7.8 GWh.
The projects are strategically positioned in Najran, Madaya, and Khamis Mushait within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. As per the laid-out timeline, the commencement of deliveries is expected within the current year, with the anticipation of connecting to the grid by the year 2025.
A spokesperson from Sungrow highlighted the ambitious scope of the project, which is challenged by a demanding delivery schedule, extreme weather conditions, and intricate logistical requirements.
In response to these challenges, Sungrow plans to deploy more than 1,500 units of its state-of-the-art Power Titan 2.0 liquid-cooled storage system. Designed with an integrated AC storage solution and boasting a high-energy density, the system is anticipated to reduce the land footprint by 55%. Pre-installation and pre-commissioning strategies are expected to streamline on-site assembly and facilitate swift grid integration, adhering to the project’s demanding deadlines.
For maintenance and operational efficiency, Sungrow is set to implement its sophisticated intelligent energy management system (EMS). This system promises comprehensive multi-tiered real-time monitoring, extending from individual cells to the entire system, ensuring an operation that is both safe and efficient. With an anticipated lifespan exceeding 15 years, the project is poised to deliver significant returns on investment for all parties involved.
