JinkoSolar has deployed a 250kW/645kWh liquid-cooled microgrid energy storage system at a remote chicken farm in the Middle East. By integrating PV, battery energy storage systems (BESS) and diesel generators, the system reduces the daily operation time of the diesel generators from 24 hours to just 1.5 hours, reducing diesel consumption by 93% and supplying over 300 days of clean energy annually.
Located in a remote region with no access to the public grid, the farm previously relied entirely on diesel generators, leading to high operational costs, significant environmental impact and unstable electricity supply. To address these challenges, Jinko implemented an AC-coupled microgrid system, integrating a 645kWh SunGiga storage cabinet with a 180kW solar system and diesel backup. Using an intelligent dispatch strategy, the system prioritizes solar power, only engaging the diesel generator when battery reserves are low. The system is designed to operate for over 10 years, providing long-term energy stability.
