Discover how cutting-edge wind energy storage solutions are transforming renewable power reliability in East Africa and beyond.
Why Wind Energy Storage Matters Now
With global wind capacity projected to reach 2,100 GW by 2030 (GWEC 2023), the critical challenge lies in storing this intermittent power. The Gitega Wind Energy Storage System exemplifies next-generation solutions that convert unpredictable wind resources into stable electricity supplies.
"Energy storage isn't just about saving power – it's about reshaping how communities access renewable energy." – EK SOLAR Technical Director
