System Type: Off-grid solar power system with LiFePO4 battery storage


300KW Off-grid Solar Power System in Peru 

300KW Off-grid Solar Power System in Peru

Background: Power Supply Constraints in Suburban Peru

In many suburban and rural areas of Peru, grid electricity remains unstable or insufficient for industrial users. Manufacturing facilities in these regions often face:

  • Frequent voltage fluctuations

  • Unplanned power outages

  • Limited grid expansion capacity

  • Increased operational risks for continuous production

For newly built plants, relying solely on the local utility grid can lead to production interruptions and higher long-term costs.

Project Objectives

The manufacturing plant owner identified several clear objectives before system selection:

  1. Ensure stable and continuous power supply for daily production

  2. Avoid reliance on unstable local utility infrastructure

  3. Control long-term energy costs under local economic conditions

  4. Deploy a system suitable for independent, off-grid operation

Given these requirements, an off-grid solar power system with battery storage was identified as the most practical solution.

Solution Design and System Selection

After evaluating local conditions and economic feasibility, the customer selected Anern to provide a customized off-grid solar solution.

Key reasons for selecting a 300kW off-grid LiFePO4 battery solar system included:

  • Suitability for manufacturing load profiles

  • High-efficiency solar energy conversion

  • Compatibility with long charge and discharge cycles

  • Reduced dependence on external power sources

The system was designed to operate independently from the grid while supporting continuous industrial use.

System Configuration and Technical Characteristics

The installed system consists of:

  • High-efficiency photovoltaic solar panels

  • Off-grid inverters designed for industrial applications

  • LiFePO4 battery storage for energy buffering and backup

Key technical characteristics include:

  • Stable power output suitable for manufacturing equipment

  • Efficient solar-to-electricity conversion

  • Simple system architecture for easier installation and maintenance

  • Long service life of LiFePO4 battery storage under frequent cycling

This configuration allows the plant to maintain operations even during periods of low solar availability.

Installation and Commissioning

The off-grid system was installed at the manufacturing site following standard engineering and safety practices.
Once commissioned, the system was integrated into the plant's daily production workflow, supplying power for:

  • Core manufacturing equipment

  • Auxiliary systems

  • Routine operational loads

Project Significance and Operational Impact

After deployment, the 300kW off-grid solar power system delivered measurable benefits:

  • Resolved power instability issues affecting production

  • Enabled continuous plant operation without grid dependency

  • Reduced exposure to utility-related outages

  • Provided a predictable and controllable energy supply

The project demonstrates how off-grid solar systems can effectively support industrial operations in regions with limited grid reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why was an off-grid solar system chosen instead of a grid-tied system?

The local utility grid in the project area was unstable and unsuitable for continuous industrial operations, making off-grid operation more reliable.

What type of facility uses this system?

The system supports a manufacturing plant, including production equipment and auxiliary operational loads.

Why were LiFePO4 batteries selected?

LiFePO4 batteries offer long cycle life, stable performance, and suitability for frequent charge and discharge in industrial applications.

Is a 300kW system sufficient for manufacturing use?

The system was sized based on the plant’s daily production and operational power demand, making it appropriate for the facility’s load profile.

How does this system improve operational stability?

By operating independently from the grid, the plant avoids outages, voltage fluctuations, and supply interruptions.

Can similar systems be deployed in other regions?

Yes. This type of off-grid solar power system is suitable for manufacturing facilities in regions with unreliable or limited grid infrastructure.


Conclusion

This Peru manufacturing project shows how a 300kW off-grid solar power system can provide stable, independent electricity for industrial operations in areas with unreliable grid supply.
