Younicos to Build Modern Storage System for Wind Power in Hawaii

As part of the contract, Younicos will replace the existing lead-acid batteries of wind farm operator TerraForm Power with advanced Samsung SDI lithium-ion cells and implement the Y. Q control software thus significantly increasing storage capacity.

At the same time, the service life of batteries, mainly used to smooth the feed-in of Kaheawa wind farm, is also increased. Kaheawa is one of Hawaii's biggest wind farms. The battery is scheduled to go into operation in the second half of the year.
