Autonomous Hybrid Power Plants (AHPP and MAHPP)

Autonomous systems operate completely independently of external grids, using a combination of RES, energy storage, and a backup fuel generator. They provide power supply to facilities where grid connection is physically impossible or economically unfeasible. Hybrid systems are connected to a centralized grid, which they use as an additional source or backup, primarily consuming energy from their own generation to reduce electricity costs.

The basic configuration includes: renewable energy sources (solar panels and/or wind turbines), a backup diesel generator unit or gas engine unit, an energy storage system based on rechargeable batteries, inverter equipment for converting direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC), a smart control and monitoring system, distribution equipment, and safety devices. The specific configuration is determined individually based on the facility's requirements.

The cost depends on the capacity, configuration, remoteness of the facility, and the selected components. You can find out more details from us by submitting a request on our website.

The total lifespan of the system is at least 30 years, subject to regular maintenance. Solar panels retain at least 86% of their performance after 30 years of operation. Batteries require replacement every 10–15 years or 6,000 cycles, depending on the type and intensity of use. A diesel generator has a lifespan of 15–20 years or 20,000–30,000 operating hours. The control system and inverter equipment are designed for 15–20 years of operation.

This depends on the consumer's operating modes. There are examples of MAHPP where maintenance includes only scheduled servicing 1–2 times a year (checking connections, cleaning panels, DG diagnostics) and fuel monitoring. The system is fully automated, and remote monitoring allows detecting faults in advance.

Yes, the modular architecture of our systems allows scaling the installation as the facility's energy consumption grows. It is possible to add extra solar panels, increase the capacity of the energy storage system, or install a more powerful inverter or an additional generator.

High insolation is recorded in the southern and Far Eastern regions of Russia, achieving record electricity generation from solar panels, which allows covering a significant part of the consumer's load. In northern regions, solar power plant generation is lower, but often the economic effect even surpasses southern regions due to the high cost of fuel delivery and electricity generation. In windy regions, a combination of solar panels with wind turbines is optimal for uniform generation throughout the year. The greatest effect from AHPS implementation is achieved by facilities remote from grids.

Solar modules come with a warranty of up to 30 years; other equipment ranges from 5 to 15 years. We provide extended service support, a warranty, and the option to conclude a long-term maintenance agreement.
