Description

🌍 Powering Tomorrow’s Grid with Smart, Sustainable Storage


📦 What is the Jinko Utility-Scale ESS?

Jinko’s Utility-Scale Energy Storage Solution is a containerized or modular battery energy storage system (BESS) designed for:

  • Grid operators (e.g., KETRACO, KPLC)

  • Independent power producers (IPPs)

  • Large-scale renewable plants (solar, wind)

  • Microgrid stabilization and off-grid hybrid systems

These systems combine:

  • High-density LiFePO₄ battery racks

  • String or central PCS/inverters

  • Fire suppression systems

  • HVAC and thermal management

  • Energy Management System (EMS) & SCADA

Available in standard 20ft/40ft containers, they’re shipped as plug-and-play solutions with a 10+ year design life.

🌟 Key Features & Benefits

🚀 Scalable to Utility and National Grid Levels

Each system is modular and stackable. Whether you need 10MWh or 1GWh, Jinko’s utility BESS grows with your grid, PPA requirements, or energy transition strategy.

🔋 LiFePO₄ Safety & Longevity

With over 6,000 cycles, no thermal runaway, and robust fire control, Jinko’s LiFePO₄ chemistry offers unmatched safety for dense deployments across diverse Kenyan climates.

🧠 AI-Driven EMS & Grid Compliance

The intelligent EMS integrates with utility SCADA systems, supporting frequency regulation, voltage support, black start, and demand response—tailored to Kenyan and East African grid codes.

🌞 Solar/Wind + Storage Hybrid Ready

Ideal for pairing with Jinko’s utility-scale Tiger Neo modules and wind turbines. Smoothly integrates into hybrid PV + storage plants, microgrids, or off-grid communities.

🔄 Grid Support & Energy Arbitrage

Charge from the grid when supply is abundant, and discharge during peak demand. Ideal for grid operators managing load fluctuations, diesel offset, and renewables intermittency.

🧯 Built-in Fire Protection & Climate Control

Each BESS unit includes active fire detection, emergency isolation, and precision HVAC, ensuring safety even in Kenya’s arid or coastal environments.
