The largest utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) in Bulgaria, a 25 MW / 55 MWh facility located in Razlog Municipality, has officially begun commercial operations. This significant milestone marks the completion of a joint venture between Solarpro and , the leading energy EPC company in . The project, which is co-located with a 33 MWp photovoltaic (PV) plant, represents a seamless integration of solar power and energy storage into the transmission system operator (TSO) grid.
Kehua, a renowned technology company, supplied the crucial 1500Vdc PCS and MV transformer integrated solution for the BESS. This advanced technology enhances the system’s capabilities, enabling peak shaving, frequency modulation, and auxiliary grid connection for new energy systems. The project sets a new standard for renewable energy integration in the region, showcasing the powerful synergy between Kehua’s cutting-edge PCS innovations and Solarpro’s expertise in hybrid energy projects.
Solarpro plans to replicate the success of the Razlog project across its Eastern European portfolio, leveraging its expertise to advance the integration of cutting-edge, high-reliability energy storage solutions. This ambitious endeavor underscores the company’s commitment to driving the energy transition and combatting climate change.
Through the collaborative efforts of industry leaders like Solarpro and Kehua, the Razlog BESS project serves as a testament to the potential for a more sustainable and resilient energy infrastructure. As a leading energy storage provider, continues to demonstrate its expertise in achieving sustainable energy transition and grid modernization programs. This project represents a significant step forward in the global effort to harness renewable energy sources and build a cleaner, more sustainable future.
