Epuron has successfully installed new Lithium-ion batteries at the Ti Tree solar plant. The new batteries have been supplied by Toshiba and replace the existing lead acid batteries. The new batteries are improving the performance of the solar plant with a significantly larger number of cycles and operating life. The batteries are part of the existing Grid Stability System that helps manage solar variation during cloud events. The Grid Stability System works in conjunction with the CloudCAM short term solar forecasting technology installed at site, which predicts cloud events before they occur.

The new battery installation is going through testing at site and will be fully commissioned shortly.
