Azelio has won the first commercial order for its long-term energy storage from ALEC Energy, thus achieving a major milestone for the company

The storage unit will be part of a system in the fourth phase of one of the world?s largest solar parks, the Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum (MBR) Solar Complex in Dubai.

This strategically important order is placed on commercial terms, reflecting that it is for a single unit. Azelio?s energy storage TES.POD will be part of a system powering a visitor centre at phase IV of the MBR Solar Complex. 

The system will combine Azelio?s technology with PV and fast-response equipment such as li-ion batteries. Azelio?s TES.POD will handle energy shifting for baseload power in the system, while batteries will manage mini-grid stability.

The MBR Solar Complex is spread over a total area of 77sqkm in Dubai. Noor Energy 1, a company owned by Dubai Electricity & Water Authority (DEWA), ACWA Power and Silk Road Fund, is currently developing 950MW of solar energy technology (phase IV) in the solar park. By 2030, the capacity in the MBR Solar Complex is planned to amount to 5,000 MW.

The order for the storage unit has been placed to Azelio by ALEC Energy, the lead EPC contractor.

?This is a major milestone for Azelio, and we are thrilled to achieve it together with ALEC Energy. Being present in the world leading MBR Solar Complex allows us to showcase our solution to important audiences and demonstrate how our long-duration energy storage can make solar power available around the clock in an affordable way,? said Azelio?s CEO Jonas Eklind.

?Long-duration energy storage is a vital component in the transition from fossil to renewable energy and a key to provide clean and secure energy 24 hours a day. ALEC Energy is proud to pioneer Azelio?s technology in this system,? commented ALEC Energy?s General Manager James Stewart.

Azelio and ALEC Energy have signed a memorandum of understanding covering 49MW installed capacity of Azelio?s storage units, starting with a smaller commercial project. ALEC Energy is also installing Azelio?s verification project in Abu Dhabi together with Masdar and Khalifa University.
