What is this system at the heart of today's challenges, whether to optimize energy resources or to promote access to them? Let's get into this topic and talk about this cost-effective, reliable and environmentally friendly innovation. More specifically, solar and storage projects in Africa to take you on a journey of these cases within my country and my continent.

First, we have Tozzi Green from Madagascar which generates electricity from renewable sources and invests in research and development. These sources are solar and wind. The objective of Tozzi Green's research is to overcome the discontinuity of renewable sources so that the energy becomes usable on demand of the user.

There's also another storage project in Madagascar which is the first solar photovoltaic plant that is expanded and equipped with batteries. Indeed, the first solar power plant will be equipped with battery storage and its production capacity will be increased by 20 MW.

JinkoSolar also provides turnkey DC-coupled battery system to West Africa. It will integrate batteries, power conditioning system (PCS), EMS software and other necessary components. The batteries are charged directly from the power plant when there is excess energy production that would otherwise be lost, and then stored before being fed into the grid when needed. They can also be used for grid services such as frequency regulation or commercial and industrial peak shaving.
