Solar Diesel Integration of 5 Star Superspar Mall
SSA
C&I
360 kWp
Solar diesel integration on South African grid
The context
- Product: ePowerControl SD
As load shedding becomes the norm in South Africa, many C&I building are now equipped with site backup gensets and PV panels. This mall in South Africa requires stable power supply to maintain service quality for its customers despite frequent outage episodes.
In order to avoid losing production during load shedding episodes ePowerControl SD has been added. It provides safe and autonomous solar integration with 1 genset.
Embedded control system + dedicated UPS ensure optimal PV production while making sure that the genset works at the minimum genset loading all the time during this period.
- Layout:
PV: 360 kWp
Gensets: 559 kVA
- Inverters: 6
- Gensets: 1
