The technology group W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 has been contracted to provide a project-critical energy storage system for the 50 MW Eolica Coromuel, S. de R. L (ECO) Wind Farm in La Paz, Mexico. The W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 energy storage system is designed to deliver a power output of 10 MW for the operational life of the project. W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 is also providing a long-term service agreement, including maintenance, spare parts, repairs, remote monitoring and performance guarantees. The W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 solution will support ECO\u2019s ability to meet grid code requirements. The order was placed in November 2020. This contract in Mexico marks an expansion of W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s smart storage technology to the region. ECO is owned by San Diego based Eurus Energy America Corporation, the majority owner of which is the Tokyo based global renewable energy company Toyota Tsusho Corporation. Eurus Energy America Corporation is part of the Eurus Energy Group.<\/p>\n

ECO and the W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 energy storage system will be connected to the local grid controlled by the National Center for Energy Control (CENACE), Mexico\u2019s Independent System Operator. The system can control the facility\u2019s ramp rate, in order to enhance generation reliability, as well as providing frequency control and capacity.<\/p>\n

W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s\u00a0GEMS<\/a>\u00a0smart energy management system will interface with and take instructions from the wind farm master controller. GEMS is a platform that connects energy assets to energy markets in technically and economically optimised manner. The platform\u2019s flexible architecture – adjusting based on market conditions – and real-time optimisation, supports the management of fluctuations in output caused by dynamically changing wind conditions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis project will help Mexico meet its renewable energy goals, and efficient energy storage is a key element for its success. The Mexican government is to have 30% of energy generated by renewables by 2021 and 35% by 2024. For this reason, we required an experienced supplier with an outstanding track record and W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 was, therefore, the obvious choice,\u201d said Nick Henriksen, Vice President, Eurus Energy America.<\/p>\n

\u201cEnabling a transition towards a 100 percent renewable energy future is central to W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s strategy, so we are delighted to be supporting this project with our advanced energy storage solution. We have demonstrated our ability to meet ECO\u2019s schedule and technical requirements, which are backed by commercial guarantees,\u201d commented John Robbins, Business Development Manager, W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 Energy.<\/p>\n

W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4\u2019s\u00a0GridSolv Max<\/a>\u00a0is a standardised and cost-effective energy storage solution that significantly increases energy density and system reliability. Its innovative architecture simplifies installation and integration for any size or type of energy storage application. Addressing the customer\u2019s energy needs, GridSolv Max and GEMS ensure the future-proofing of the system\u2019s assets.<\/p>\n
