en.Wedoany.com Reported - Kenyan President William Ruto recently conducted a field inspection of the hybrid microgrid project invested and built by Prime Energy in the country. The project is a 6MW solar-storage-diesel hybrid microgrid energy station cluster, utilizing distributed collaborative scheduling and intelligent energy management technologies to achieve efficient integration, optimized allocation, and low-cost routine operation of multiple energy sources. Ruto affirmed the value of the system as a highly reliable, high-quality new power solution beyond the traditional grid.

Located in Kenya, this demonstration project precisely targets the electricity needs of Africa's arid and semi-arid regions. Since its commissioning, the system, with its low fuel consumption, strong intelligence, and high stability, has significantly improved the long-standing power supply difficulties in the area, addressing the infrastructure gap in remote regions. Currently, the project's radiating effects continue to unfold, providing stable and clean electricity to thousands of surrounding households, benefiting grassroots livelihoods.

Kenya's harsh natural environment, including persistent high temperatures, strong ultraviolet radiation, wind and sand erosion, and frequent grid fluctuations, imposes extremely high demands on equipment weather resistance and system stability. According to actual operational and maintenance data, the 6MW microgrid system deployed by Prime Energy has performed excellently: all equipment maintains structural integrity without corrosion damage under extreme outdoor conditions; the energy storage system operates smoothly and efficiently; switching between solar-storage and diesel energy systems is rapid and seamless; and the SCADA system enables intelligent remote efficient operation and maintenance, significantly reducing reliance on on-site personnel.

The project's outstanding performance in implementation outcomes and operational stability reflects Prime Energy's technical strength across the entire chain, including overall microgrid solution design, selection of highly adaptable core equipment, and integration of intelligent control systems, as well as the high reliability of its products in complex overseas scenarios.

Based on the trend of green and low-carbon development, Prime Energy continues to expand its overseas new energy market, delivering customized, intelligent, and highly adaptable distributed energy solutions to support Africa's green energy transition and inject momentum into global clean energy interconnection.
