The European Union has set targets for reducing its carbon footprint. This supposes to eliminate coal power plants and increase renewable energy. France has also to take its share, with a promise to reduce nuclear electricity in its energy mix. France shall increase renewable energy to 40% in 2030, when it was only 23% in 2019.
On 19th November 2020, the European Commission presented its Strategy on offshore Renewable Energy. The target will be to produce 60 GW by 2030, 300 GW by 2050 by this maritime way. In 2050, 25% of Europe’s electricity could come from the sea. For land-based facilities, due to technical and environmental constraints, solarand wind farms are largely located on isolated sites.
Reliability has a direct impact on profitability of power generation.
Slat introduces ENERGO to answer the specific needs of renewable energies.
-
Easy installation :
Its cold-start function allows the medium voltage breakers to be operated during commissioning without the need for a temporary generator. Side cable entries simplify wiring. The windmill function allows wind turbines in the same field to be coupled gradually in order to damp out transients on the grid.
-
Reduce on-site interventions :
The lithium battery, resistant to extreme weather conditions, allows their installation in shelters or in wind turbine stands without air conditioning or pre-heating. They last 3 times more than lead-acid batteries. A link to the PLC allows to enhanced remote diagnostics and avoid unnecessary on-site trips. Their maintenance-free service life of over 10 years is particularly suitable for isolated sites.
