Under the agreement, EVE Energy has been included in Akaysha's core supplier list and will provide large-scale energy storage battery systems to support the deployment of 4 GWh energy storage projects in Australia.
NETC Powers Grid Connection for 600 MWh Standalone Energy Storage Project
On July 16, the Shandong Zhanhua Lubei Base 300 MW / 600 MWh standalone energy storage project—powered by core equipment supplied by NETC (Guoke Energy)—was successfully connected to the grid.
Located in Zhanhua District, Binzhou City, Shandong Province, the facility is one of Shandong's key new-type energy storage projects. NETC provided high-performance energy storage system solutions for the project.
Haier New Energy's 9 MW Microgrid Project in Thailand Connected to Grid
On July 6, the 9 MW commercial and industrial (C&I) microgrid project invested and constructed by Haier New Energy at its Chonburi factory in Thailand was successfully connected to the grid. Phase I of the project, a 2.1 MW carport solar PV system, was connected to the grid earlier in March. This overall grid connection marks the project's official transition into normal operations.
The project features a total solar capacity of 9 MW paired with a 0.2 MW / 0.5 MWh energy storage system. Leveraging Thailand's abundant solar radiation and unused factory space, it adopts an integrated rooftop and carport solar layout to comprehensively cover the factory's power needs across production and office operations.
