APPLICATION
Command, control and radar monitoring station
Project Overview
The Suez Canal Authority needed reliable energy for the critical loads at the East Al Fardan Command & Control Radar Monitoring Station. The station sits on an island within the Suez Canal, one of the world’s most important shipping routes, and plays a critical role in security on the canal.
Ryse Energy supplied a hybrid renewable energy system: a Ryse E-5 wind turbine, a 4.95 kWp rooftop solar PV system of 15 modules rated at 330 Wp, 18 kWh of Li-ion batteries and a full monitoring system.
The system was sized so that wind and solar became the station’s primary source of electricity. Since installation, renewable energy has powered the site for over 99% of the time.
Products in this project: E-5 5 kW wind turbine and hybrid wind and solar systems.
