As record-breaking heatwaves become increasingly common, owners of photovoltaic (PV) energy storage systems face unique challenges. While sunshine fuels solar generation, extreme high temperatures can paradoxically hinder performance and impact system longevity. Understanding these effects and implementing mitigation strategies is crucial for maintaining optimal energy harvest and storage resilien...
Recently, construction has commenced on several photovoltaic projects, reaching a total capacity of 2GW and with a total investment of nearly 6 billion yuan. On August 19th, construction began on the CECEP Solar Muping Phase I 100MW Photovoltaic Composite Power Generation Project. The project, located in Guanshui Town, Muping District, Yantai City, Shandong Province, covers a total l...
The time-of-use electricity pricing policies successively introduced by various regions have dealt a heavy blow to the entire industrial and commercial energy storage sector. Take Jiangsu Province, for example, where a recent adjustment to its TOU pricing policy shifted the original "agent purchase electricity price + transmission and distribution electricity price" to a "agent purchase electricit...
Imagine a world where your commercial parking lot does more than just shield cars from the elements. What if it became a dynamic, revenue-generating asset, slashing energy bills and positioning your company as a leader in sustainability? This is no longer a futuristic concept but a present-day reality made possible by integrated solar carport and battery storage (PV-storage) systems. This innovati...
When discussing energy storage projects, the terms MW and MWh appear frequently. Many people are confused by these two abbreviations: what exactly do they mean and what's the difference? Simply put, MW is a unit of power, and MWh is a unit of energy. In power systems, MW and MWh are core metrics for describing system capabilities. Understanding the difference between these two concepts is as cruci...
As typhoons unleash their fury with howling winds and torrential rains, vast solar arrays—those symbols of green energy—face their ultimate test. Can these meticulously engineered systems withstand nature’s violent outburst? From the glass surfaces of photovoltaic panels to the metal skeletons of mounting structures, every component battles immense forces that threaten to dismant...
1. Definition of Independent Energy Storage Independent energy storage refers to new energy storage projects that utilize physical energy storage, electrochemical energy storage, electromagnetic energy storage, phase change energy storage, and other technologies other than pumped hydro storage. These projects possess independent metering and control technologies, are connected to dispatch automati...
When we discuss today's energy revolution, "battery" is undoubtedly one of the core keywords. From speeding electric cars to the large-scale energy storage power stations silently supporting the power grid, battery technology is changing our lives at an unprecedented pace. However, did you know that the batteries that power electric cars and those used to store wind and solar energy, while both ca...
Designing a battery energy storage system (BESS) is a critical step toward achieving energy independence, optimizing renewable energy use, and ensuring backup power. Whether for residential, commercial, or industrial applications, a well-designed BESS can significantly reduce electricity costs, enhance grid stability, and contribute to a sustainable future. In this blog, we’ll walk through t...
