Jinko ESS has announced the commissioning of 21.6 MWh of energy storage systems supplied to Distributed Energy Infrastructure (DEI), the milestone marking a significant step in advancing clean, reliable and dispatchable energy in the state of Massachusetts through its Solar Massachusetts Renewable Target (SMART) program.
The three newly commissioned systems, developed and constructed by DEI, are now operational and providing essential grid services, while strengthening the performance and resilience of solar energy assets in the state, supporting its climate goals and energy modernization efforts. Each system utilizes a mix of DC and AC coupled configurations to maximize operational flexibility and performance.
“Collaborating with DEI on these projects has been a great opportunity to showcase the value of Jinko’s U.S. energy storage solutions and our local engineering expertise,” commented Jeff Juger, Deputy GM and Head of ESS in the U.S. “We are delighted to support DEI’s fully integrated project delivery model and shared vision of accelerating the transition to a cleaner grid.”
Sean Harrington, CEO and Founder of Distributed Energy Infrastructure, added: “These projects represent a key milestone in DEI’s mission to bring resilient, clean energy solutions to the communities we serve. We chose Jinko ESS to supply the batteries for this portfolio due to its strong U.S.-based service team, more than 15 years of experience supporting similar projects and its proven, robust technology. Working directly with the Jinko ESS U.S. commissioning team helped us streamline system integration and accelerate time to operation, ensuring our clients received the full benefit of a tightly managed, end-to-end solution.”
