Wow! Impressive!
"... The company will put together facilities at five sites totaling a massive 12.5 GWh of energy storage. ...
The contract between BYD and the Saudi Electricity Company is part of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 initiative, which will hopefully see the country generate 50% of its electricity from renewable sources over the next five years. ...
BYD says each site will get its MC Cube-T Energy Storage System (ESS), which features the company's efficient and compact Blade batteries (which are also seen its electric cars). This system is also said to tightly integrate all its componentry – like its cooling systems, electronics, and protective casings – for a small footprint.
The five sites combined will be able to store nearly four times more energy than what's believed to be the current largest battery energy storage facility worldwide: the 3.287-GWh Edwards & Sanborn project in Kern County, California. ..."
"... The systems adopt BYD Energy Storage's globally pioneering CTS (Cell-to-System) super-integrated technology, with a Vcts (proportion of cell volume to system volume) index exceeding 33%. The 12.5GWh energy storage systems will be fully integrated into Saudi Arabia's power transmission network system, playing a crucial role in addressing the challenges accumulated by the increasing number of renewable energy power generation systems, ensuring stable power supply, and meeting peak energy demand. Meanwhile, it will promote the development of Saudi Arabia's energy infrastructure in a flexible, efficient, and economic way, assisting in energy transformation and adding momentum to national energy security. ..."
