Lambata, located in Niger State, Nigeria, is a region full of potential with abundant solar energy resources. Due to the low electricity access in rural areas and insufficient grid coverage, Lambata has become a key target area for driving the transition to renewable energy and achieving sustainable development.

In January 2024, Raleigh Fitkin Memorial (RFM) Hospital in Manzini, Eswatini, successfully completed the installation of a hybrid power station featuring ATESS energy storage system. It enhances the facility's ability to withstand load shedding and significantly reduces operational energy costs by 80%. This project aligns with Eswatini’s vision for a sustainable energy future and showcases the transformative impact of renewable energy on healthcare infrastructure.

ATESS proudly partnered with Oceana Group on an ambitious renewable energy initiative at the new Lucky Star Meat Cannery, located on South Africa's West Coast. Our advanced energy solutions at Lucky Star's cannery—one of the top five solar projects in Africa—have transformed the facility, enabling uninterrupted operations and shielding it from grid disruptions. This technical white paper highlights the detailed design, operation, and benefits of ATESS' state-of-the-art energy solutions implemented at the cannery, which not only enhances production continuity by minimizing grid dependency but also contributes to Oceana Group's sustainability and local economic goals.

Saudi Arabia has a huge annual consumption of fresh water, reaching 30 billion cubic meters per year, while the total amount of surface water produced each year is only about 2 billion cubic meters. The fresh water gap is increasing with population growth and rising living standards. In order to cope with the shortage of fresh water resources, Saudi Arabia has taken various measures to ensure the supply of fresh water, one of the main means of which is seawater desalination technology.

However, the process of seawater desalination consumes a significant amount of electricity. In some coastal desert areas suitable for building seawater desalination plants, the utility grid has not yet been connected to, and relying on fossil fuels for seawater desalination will result in high costs. This white paper explores how the ATESS energy storage technology empowers seawater desalination plants in a cost-effective and sustainable way.
