en.Wedoany.com Reported - Chilean President José Antonio Kast attended the inauguration ceremony of the Elena solar-storage station on June 8, 2026. The project, with a scale of 446MW/3.5GWh, is the largest operational energy storage station in Latin America.
Black Shield Co., Ltd. provided nearly 3,000 units of the 5.5kW MC-GR liquid cooling integrated machine for this project, ensuring the stable operation of the energy storage system. The Elena station is located in the Atacama Desert, one of the regions with the strongest solar radiation globally, characterized by extreme diurnal temperature variations and severe wind and sand. The temperature control system has become a core link in ensuring the long-term stable operation of energy storage equipment. Black Shield's customized 5.5kW MC-GR liquid cooling integrated machine is specifically designed for the confined space of energy storage cabinets, adopting an integrated structure and wall-mounted installation. The batch application of nearly 3,000 units has verified the product's stability in large-scale deployment. This liquid cooling integrated machine offers advantages such as high efficiency, energy savings, precise temperature control, and reliable durability. The liquid cooling medium has high specific heat capacity and large heat transfer coefficient, paired with a variable frequency compressor and EC fans; it is equipped with RS485/CAN communication interfaces supporting remote monitoring, capable of intelligently adjusting operating status based on cell temperature, automatically entering standby mode at low temperatures to maximize energy-saving effects; the stainless steel water tank and pipelines are corrosion-resistant, adopting a full front maintenance structure, capable of 24-hour continuous operation, with a design service life of over 10 years.
Previously, Black Shield's liquid cooling products have been validated in extreme environments at a solar-storage station in Tibet at an altitude of 4,500 meters, with their reliability fully proven under harsh conditions.
From the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to Chile's Atacama Desert, Black Shield's temperature control products have been operating at multiple sites worldwide alongside customer energy storage systems. Facing the increasing demands of the energy storage industry for temperature control management, Black Shield will continue to focus on product reliability and energy efficiency optimization, providing professional support for the safe and stable operation of energy storage systems.
