Umthuthukisi wamandla elanga kanye namandla ahlakaniphile ahlanganiswe ngokuqondile i-Qcells umemezele izinhlelo zokusebenzisa amanye amaphrojekthi amathathu ngemva kokuqala kokwakhiwa ohlelweni lokuqala oluzimele lokugcina amandla ebhethri (i-BESS) oluzosetshenziswa e-United States.
Inkampani kanye nomthuthukisi wamandla avuselelekayo i-Summit Ridge Energy bamemezele ukuthi bakha izinhlelo ezintathu ezisebenza ngokuzimela zokugcina amabhethri eNew York.
Ngokwemibiko yabezindaba yemboni, i-Qcells ithe isiqede umsebenzi wokuxhasa ngezimali u-$150 million futhi yaqala ukwakhiwa kwephrojekthi yayo yokugcina ibhethri engu-190MW/380MWh yaseCunningham eTexas, okokuqala ngqa inkampani ikhiphe uhlelo oluzimele lokugcina ibhethri.
Le nkampani ithe isikhungo sesikweletu esijikelezayo, esivikelwe abahleli abaholayo i-BNP Paribas kanye ne-Crédit Agricole, izosetshenziselwa ukuthunyelwa kwamaphrojekthi ayo wesikhathi esizayo futhi isetshenziswe kuphrojekthi yokugcina amandla kaCunningham.
Amaphrojekthi amathathu okugcina amabhethri e-New York City's Staten Island nase-Brooklyn mancane kakhulu, anosayizi ohlanganisiwe ongu-12MW/48MWh. Imali engenayo evela kumaphrojekthi amathathu izovela kumodeli yebhizinisi ehlukile kunephrojekthi yase-Texas futhi izongena ku-Electric Reliability Commission yase-Texas (ERCOT) yemakethe yesifunda.
Kunalokho, amaphrojekthi ajoyina uhlelo lwaseNew York lwe-Value in Distributed Energy Resources (VDER), lapho izinsiza zikahulumeni zikhokha isinxephezelo sabanikazi bamandla abasabalalisiwe ngokusekelwe kokuthi amandla anikezwa nini futhi kuphi kugridi. Lokhu kusekelwe ezicini ezinhlanu: inani lamandla, inani lamandla, inani lendawo, inani lokunciphisa isidingo kanye nenani lokunciphisa uhlelo lwendawo.
I-Summit Ridge Energy, enguzakwethu we-Qcells, igxile ekuhanjisweni komphakathi ngelanga namandla okugcina amandla, kanye nenani lezinye izikhungo esezilungenele lolu hlelo. ISummit Ridge Energy inephothifoliyo engaphezu kuka-700MW yamaphrojekthi kagesi ahlanzekile asebenzayo noma asathuthuka e-United States, kanye namaphrojekthi angaphezu kuka-100MWh okugcina amandla azimele aqale ukusungulwa ngo-2019.
Ngaphansi kwemibandela yesivumelwano sokubambisana seminyaka emithathu esisayinwe yizinhlangothi zombili, i-Qcells izohlinzeka ngehadiwe nesofthiwe yohlelo lokugcina amandla. Le nkampani ithe izothembela ohlelweni lokuphatha amandla (EMS) eyaluthola ngasekupheleni kuka-2020 lapho ithola uGeli, umthuthukisi wesoftware yase-US yezohwebo nezimboni (C&I) yokugcina amandla.
Isofthiwe ye-Geli izokwazi ukubikezela isidingo esikhulu samandla kugridi ye-New York State Grid Operator's (NYISO), ikhiphe amandla agciniwe ngalezi zikhathi ukuze isekele ukusebenza okuzinzile kwegridi. Amaphrojekthi kusolakala ukuthi azoba ngewokuqala eNew York ukubhekana nezinkinga zokuhlela ngobuhlakani ngezikhathi eziphakeme kakhulu.
"Ithuba lokugcina amandla eNew York libalulekile, futhi njengoba umbuso uqhubeka nokuguqukela kumandla avuselelekayo, ukuthunyelwa okuzimele kokugcinwa kwamandla ngeke nje kusekele ukuqina kwegridi, kodwa futhi kusiza ukunciphisa Ukuthembela ezitshalweni zamandla aphehla uphethiloli futhi kusize ukulawula imvamisa yegridi. .”
I-New York izibekele umgomo wokusebenzisa i-6GW yokugcina amandla kugridi ngo-2030, njengoba uMbusi waseNew York uKathy Hochul ephawula lapho esanda kumemezela uxhaso lochungechunge lwesikhathi eside.ukugcinwa kwamandlaamaphrojekthi kanye nobuchwepheshe.
Ngesikhathi esifanayo, ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni kanye nekhwalithi yomoya ethuthukisiwe kudinga ukuqhutshwa ngokunciphisa ukuthembela ezitshalweni zamandla aphakeme ezinsalela ezimbiwa phansi. Kuze kube manje, izinhlelo zokumiselela zigxile ekwakhiweni kwezinhlelo ezinkulu zokugcina amabhethri ezinobude besikhathi samahora amane, ngokuvamile obungu-100MW/400MWh ngobukhulu, namaphrojekthi ambalwa kuphela asathuthukiswayo kuze kube manje.
Nokho, amasistimu okugcina amabhethri asabalalisiwe afana nalawo asetshenziswe yi-Qcells kanye ne-Summit Ridge Energy angaba indlela ehambisanayo yokuletha amandla ahlanzekile kugridi ngokushesha.
Umsebenzi wokwakha kula maphrojekthi amathathu usuqalile, kanti kulindeleke ukuthi uqalise ukusebenza ekuqaleni kuka-2023.
