JA Solar Begins Global Rollout of C&I Energy Storage Systems with First Shipment to Africa

JA Solar, a global leader in renewable energy, is expanding its global footprint with its inaugural shipment of 2.32MWh commercial and industrial (C&I) energy storage systems to Africa. The first units of the "BluePlanet" liquid-cooled outdoor storage cabinet are en route to Nairobi and Kisumu, Kenya, introducing this state-of-the-art technology to the African market.

The BluePlanet system embodies JA Solar's innovative engineering and dedication to solving global energy challenges. With exceptional AC-side efficiency exceeding 90%, it ensures superior energy conversion and reliable performance. Its advanced liquid cooling technology maintains a temperature variation of less than 3°C between cells, enhancing reliability and extending the system's lifespan even in extreme climates. Additionally, the system features lightning-fast switching with a transition time of less than 20 milliseconds, enabling seamless operation across grid-connected, off-grid, and generator-powered modes. This cutting-edge solution sets a new standard for resilience, adaptability, and efficiency in the renewable energy sector.

Africa, with its abundant solar resources, faces unique energy challenges such as unreliable grids and high fuel costs. The BluePlanet system is designed to tackle these issues, delivering stable and cost-efficient power while reducing reliance on diesel generators.It is particularly suited for critical applications in locations such as hospitals, factories, and commercial enterprises that require consistent power supply to maintain operations.

JA Solar leverages strong R&D, a global sales network, and innovative "solar + storage" solutions to deliver reliable, efficient energy systems that meet the specific requirements of local markets. With a growing presence in major African markets including South Africa, Morocco, and Nigeria, the successful debut of its C&I energy storage solution in Kenya reinforces its commitment to advancing sustainability and powering a greener, brighter future in Africa and around the world.
