en.Wedoany.com Reported - Romanian energy services company Alive Capital has completed the energization and grid connection of the Nanov solar-storage hybrid power station. The facility is equipped with 23.45MWac of photovoltaic (PV) generation capacity, paired with a battery energy storage system rated at 5MW with a capacity of 10.67MWh, forming a 23.45MWac/26MWdc integrated PV-plus-storage hybrid project.
The commissioning of this project adds new momentum to Romania's expanding renewable energy landscape. By integrating PV generation with battery storage, the Nanov station aims to optimize energy dispatch, enhance grid operational stability, and improve the delivery efficiency of renewable electricity. In addition to supplying clean power directly, the station will serve as a demonstration of how storage technology can facilitate the integration of larger shares of renewable energy into the grid, aligning with Alive Capital's strategic direction of continuously deploying innovative clean energy solutions in Romania.
In terms of enhancing grid stability, the solar-storage station can play multiple roles: the storage system shifts daytime PV generation to evening peak demand periods, enabling controllable renewable energy output and reducing the impact of generation fluctuations on the grid; the battery can rapidly absorb instantaneous excess generation caused by cloud cover and release power within seconds to minutes, smoothing out sharp ramps in PV output and maintaining local voltage and frequency stability; through the battery's fast response capability, the station can provide frequency regulation and supply-demand balance support to grid operators; during evening load peaks, storage discharge can alleviate grid peak pressure, reducing reliance on rapid ramping of conventional units; the storage can also absorb surplus electricity that would otherwise be curtailed due to grid constraints, improving renewable energy utilization; this flexible capacity enables more PV power to be reliably integrated without requiring a simultaneous increase in traditional thermal generation; the station's control system also features voltage management and reactive power compensation functions, helping to maintain power quality at the point of interconnection; during grid disturbances or outages, the storage can act as a controllable energy buffer, enhancing the operational resilience of the regional grid; additionally, more predictable day-ahead and intraday generation schedules help system operators plan reserve capacity more efficiently, reducing uncertainty in the balancing market.
