Speaking at the inauguration event, Dr Sultan Al Jaber also commended His Excellency President Ilham Aliyev and the nation of Azerbaijan for its commitment to a defined, strategic plan of action to develop new industries, new jobs and green economic growth. 

In his speech HE Dr Sultan said:

  • With just 34 days to COP28, Garadagh illustrates the practical action needed to turn the goals of the Paris Agreement into tangible reality.
  • Paris unified the world around a common goal, but since then, we have not seen enough action to close a massive emissions gap.
  • While investment in renewable energy continues to grow, with a record 500GW added globally this year, the world must triple renewable energy capacity by 2030 to keep 1.5 within reach.
  • It is critical to bring everybody to the table to be part of the solution. This is the spirit of inclusivity needed at COP28, bringing the world together to focus on solutions and results.

HE Parviz Shahbazov, Azerbaijan Minister of Energy, commented: “Today is marked by the achievements of the state policy of the President of Azerbaijan, which prioritizes the development of renewable energy. The commissioning of the largest solar power plant based on the first foreign investment in our energy history, as well as the signing of investment agreements for the implementation of solar and wind energy projects with a capacity of 1000 MW, show that our country’s green energy and green investment plans are successfully becoming a reality. Azerbaijan is pleased to realize its strategic goals as a green energy producing and exporting country with Masdar and these projects will play an important role in increasing the share of renewable energy sources in electricity generation capacity to 30 percent by 2030.”

The Garadagh plant which represents Masdar’s first project in the country, will generate half a billion kilowatt-hours of electricity each year, enough to power more than 110,000 homes, reducing carbon emissions by over 200,000 tonnes a year. The project is co-financed by Abu Dhabi Fund for Development, the Asian Development Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and Japan International Cooperation Agency.

Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, Chief Executive Officer of Masdar, said: “The inauguration of Garadagh, the largest operational plant in the region, is a milestone achievement. Azerbaijan is a key strategic partner for Masdar and the signing of these additional agreements today pave the way to accelerate the scale of Azerbaijan’s clean energy vision. Garadagh is the first in a number of potential projects to develop onshore wind, offshore wind, solar and green hydrogen with a total combined capacity of 10GW. This will lead to greater investment and international collaboration as we work together to help Azerbaijan achieve its ambitious climate goals.”

Drawing from years of experience in lithium-ion battery systems and energy storage systems, ROYPOW’s residential system provides whole-home backup power with an impressive efficiency rate of 98%, a substantial power output of 10kW to 15 kW, and a capacity of up to 40 kWh. These combinations are powerful and will empower users to save electricity expenses by optimizing solar power utilization, promote energy freedom by seamlessly transitioning between PV-generated electricity and battery power consumption, and enhance electricity reliability by functioning as an off-grid system that ensures uninterrupted power to critical loads during outages with UPS-level switching time.

With an all-in-one design integrating the battery module, hybrid inverter, BMS, EMS, and more into a compact cabinet, ROYPOW’s residential energy storage system has the best of both worlds for aesthetic appeal and simplified installation. Within hours, it can be up and running, providing sufficient power to live off the grid. The modular design enables the battery modules to be stacked from 5 kWh to 40 kWh storage capacities to run more home appliances, including electric vehicle charging. Additionally, ROYPOW’s solution can be seamlessly integrated into new and existing PV systems.

Safety and intelligent management are also highlighted. The LiFePO4 batteries, the safest, most durable, and most advanced lithium-ion battery technology, have up to ten years of design life and will last over 6,000 cycles. Integrated aerosols and the RSD (Rapid Shut Down) & AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter) help prevent electrical problems and fire, making ROYPOW one of the safest systems in the energy storage lineup. With Type 4X protections for water resistance and toughness in all weather conditions, owners will enjoy a significant reduction in maintenance costs. Conforming to the UL9540 for the system, UL 1741 and IEEE 1547 for the inverter, and UL1973 and UL9540A for the battery, it’s a powerful testament to the safety and performance of ROYPOW systems. Using the ROYPOW app or the web interface allows users to monitor solar generation, battery power and usage, and household consumption in real time. Users can set their preferences to optimize for energy independence, outage protection or savings all while controlling the system from anywhere with remote access. A key feature is Instant Alerts, which keep homeowners informed through notifications of system status, completely configurable by the user. 

To ensure peace of mind, ROYPOW systems carry a 10-year warranty. Moreover, ROYPOW has established a local network to provide all-around support for installers and distributors, from installation and sales training and online technical support to local warehousing of spare parts stock.

“As the world moves toward a cleaner and more sustainable energy future, residential energy storage systems that support whole-home power backup, high power capacity, enhanced intelligence, and more are the way to go, which is what ROYPOW works for, providing a promising way to produce and store renewable energy at the household level increasing energy resilience and self-sufficiency and reducing reliance on the grid,” said Michael, Vice President of ROYPOW Technology.
