Voltalia energises solar-storage park in French Guiana
Located in the commune of Mana, the photovoltaic (PV) farm will be capable of generating 7,430 MWh of electricity, or enough to cover the consumption of roughly 3,090 inhabitants of Western Guiana. The plant is coupled with a 10.6-MWh lithium-ion battery storage facility, which will hep stabilise the local grid during high-demand periods.
Voltalia brings live 10 MW/13.6 MWh of battery storage in French Guiana
At present, Voltalia has 29 MW of capacity in operation and under construction in French Guiana. This total includes biomass, hydropower, battery storage and solar photovoltaic (PV) projects. In October last year, the French firm and its partner Banque des Territoires, part of France''s Groupe Caisse des Depots brought online a 2.6 MW/2.9 MWh
Project
CEOG will provide cheaper and firm power all year long, day and night, to 10 000 homes in Western Guiana. Combining a photovoltaic plant and mass storage of energy in the form of hydrogen, CEOG is the alternative to a classic diesel power plant.
