Peak Power designed and built this 100 kW micro-grid in collaboration with ADB, AEPC and Motherland Energy Group. This microgrid provides power to more than 1000 people; there was no electrical system in this village. This was an extensive project requiring months of planning and execution — we built the power house building and erected more than 119 power poles with 7.8 km’s of transmission lines before we even delivered solar modules, inverters and batteries to the site.
Around a year after the completion of this system we were asked to do an extension to add another 50kW of AC coupled PV; due to our design foresight the expansion was very straightforward. The system was also extended to some other households that were not connected. This was a real eye-opening and satisfying experience being a part of this project.
