This project in Somaliland is one of the first in the world to use the company’s patented Maximum Inverter Power Tracking (MIPT) technology to increase the share of solar power in microgrids. Hosted by BEC utility, Somaliland’s power grid supplying the city of Berbera is being monitored and controlled using microgrid technology.
Somaliland’s power grid supplying the city of Berbera, home to the largest port in the horn of Africa, is being monitored and controlled using microgrid technology. The microgrid consists of two solar plants with a total capacity of 8MW, a containerised lithium-ion power storage system with a capacity of 2MWh and three modern diesel generators.
The company’s lithium-ion storage system can be operated either alongside the grid or as an integrated part of it. In this operating mode and in conjunction with the UPP, it almost completely eliminates grid instability and disturbances due to multiple effects of growing electrical demand profiles.
