A community in Chad is celebrating the installation and official inauguration of a solar PV(photovoltaic) mini-grid system equipped with battery storage.
The standalone ground-mounted 78kWp solar PV mini-grid system is equipped with a
324kWh battery bank storage using solar modules, energy storage inverters and Lithium-ion batteries.
The remote monitoring system was installed to provide real-time information about the system.One of the key features of the PV mini-grid is its distribution line, which extends the reach of electricity to communities far from the main power grid.
Equipped with advanced technology, the PV mini-grid will ensure high efficiency and increased durability, serving as a model for replication and scalability across Chad and beyond.
“Together, we can build a future where every community has access to clean, reliable energy while preserving our environment for future generations,” said Minister of Water and Energy, Passalé Kanabé Marcelin, in his speech inaugurating the project.
