en.Wedoany.com Reported - The battery energy storage project in Côte d'Ivoire, jointly undertaken by Weihai International Co., Ltd. and Hohaitech Co., Ltd., has recently been connected to the grid and put into operation. With an energy storage capacity of 105 MW/105 MWh, it is one of the largest battery energy storage projects in operation in West Africa.

This project features advanced system design and superior equipment selection, built in strict compliance with international standards. Upon full completion, it will significantly enhance the flexible regulation capacity and operational resilience of Côte d'Ivoire's national power grid, effectively mitigating the intermittency and volatility of renewable energy generation. It will provide solid support for the reliable integration and consumption of a higher proportion of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power, thereby accelerating the local energy structure's transition towards a clean and low-carbon model. Furthermore, leveraging the millisecond-level rapid response capability of the energy storage system, the project will play a vital role in key scenarios including grid peak shaving and valley filling, frequency regulation, spinning reserve, emergency power supply, and whole-system blackstart, greatly enhancing the safety and overall stability of the regional power supply.

The successful implementation of this benchmark project not only lays a solid foundation for building a new-type power system in Côte d'Ivoire but also demonstrates the comprehensive strength and brand influence of Chinese enterprises in the field of international new-energy infrastructure construction.
