264MWh! Sunshine Power and EDF once again joined hands to help develop South Africa's virtual power plant project

2023-12-05 15:21:26

EDF Renewables has cooperated with Sunshine Power for many times, covering major new energy markets such as Europe, America and the Middle East.

Following the cooperation in major new energy markets such as Europe, America and the Middle East, Sunshine Power and EDF Renewables once again joined forces to provide liquid-cooled energy storage system for South Africa's first wind-solar-storage integrated virtual power plant project, helping South Africa's energy transformation and low-carbon development.

Recently, Sunshine Power signed a supply agreement with EDF Renewables to provide 264MWh liquid-cooled energy storage system for South Africa's first wind-solar-storage integrated virtual power plant project . The project is one of the South African Risk Mitigation Independent Power Producer Procurement Program (RMIPPPP), which will effectively alleviate the power crisis in South Africa, improve the stability of energy supply and provide a demonstration for the development of new energy in South Africa.

EDF Renewables is an integrated operator covering power plant development, construction, production, operation and maintenance. As one of the world's largest power supply service providers, EDF Renewables has cooperated with Sunshine Power in a number of global projects, including the Al Dhafra 1.5GW photovoltaic project in the United Arab Emirates, covering major new energy markets in Europe, the Americas and the Middle East.

The first virtual power plant project in South Africa, which deeply integrates wind power, photovoltaic and energy storage technologies, consists of Avondale photovoltaic storage power station and Dassiesridge wind storage power station 900 kilometers apart, all of which use Sunshine Power Titan liquid-cooled energy storage system, greatly increasing the proportion of new energy consumption. At the same time, the project operates as a virtual power plant, which can realize the coordinated dispatch of energy across regions and improve the stability of regional power supply. It is estimated that after the project is connected to the grid, nearly 400 million degrees of clean electricity can be generated annually to meet the annual electricity demand of 120,000 households *. CEO Tristan de Drouas of

EDF Renewables South Africa: "This project is our first virtual power plant project with integration of wind, solar and storage in Africa, which is of milestone significance.". Relying on 26 years of industry experience and continuous technological innovation of Sunshine Power, we believe that the emergency power project can be delivered with high quality, provide sustainable and stable green energy for the local area, effectively fill the power supply gap, and help South Africa's energy transformation and low-carbon development.
