The challenge

  • Solar production in two separate locations with different profiles.
  • Environmental and logistical constraints of a floating installation.
  • Need for a single integrated storage system.
  • High requirements due to corrosion, humidity, and access.

The solution

  • 1 MWh centralized system to stabilize and store energy from both plants.
  • Analysis of generation curves from each lake to size power and capacity.
  • Robust design with enclosures prepared for damp environments and safe access.
  • Remote supervision and energy prioritization algorithms.
  • Ready to expand storage up to 3 MWh.

The result

  • Joint management of two plants from a single system.
  • Higher performance thanks to smart storage.
  • Fewer curtailment losses and a more stable grid delivery.
  • Ready for future expansion if the plants grow.
  • Reliable operation with minimal maintenance.
