Masdar has signed an agreement with China’s Sungrow to procure energy storage systems (ESS) and photovoltaic (PV) inverter solutions for a gigascale round-the-clock renewable energy project (RTC) in Abu Dhabi.
In a press statement Sungrow announced its commitment to provide 7.5-gigawatt-hours (GWh) of PowerTitan 3.0 Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and 2.6 gigawatts (GW) of photovoltaic (PV) inverter solutions.
The agreement follows a recent announcement by China’s JinkoSolar, which previously signed an agreement with Masdar to supply 2GW of high-efficiency PV modules for the project.
The RTC project, a collaborative effort between Masdar and Emirates Water and Electricity Company (EWEC), is poised to commence operations in 2027. This development integrates a substantial 5.2GW of solar photovoltaic (PV) generation capacity and a 19GWh battery energy storage system (BESS). The project aims to provide a continuous supply of base load renewable electricity at globally competitive tariffs.
Sungrow’s project aims to deploy over 1,000 PowerTitan 3.0 liquid-cooled ESS units, integrated with cutting-edge PV inverter technologies. These systems are designed to operate on an optimised cycle of 8-hour charging and 16-hour discharging, ensuring a stable and flexible renewable energy supply.
The press statement revealed that the systems can operate at temperatures up to 55-degrees Celsius without any degradation, making them well-suited for the UAE’s climate. Once operational in 2027, the RTC project is anticipated to become the world’s first gigascale renewable energy project capable of providing baseload renewable electricity.
Last year, Masdar appointed India’s Larsen & Toubro and China’s POWERCHINA as the preferred engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractors for the development project. Earlier, supplier selections also included Chinese companies JA Solar for photovoltaic (PV) modules and CATL as the preferred battery energy storage system (BESS) supplier.
