National Technology Enterprises Company, Kuwait Scientific Research
Institute in partnership with Heliocentris inaugurate, GCC's Clean Power
Site
Project to provide cutting edge green technology, core technologies and
know-how to KISR for carbon emissions free power supply
Kuwait City, Kuwait. October 22, 2012: Heliocentris, the experts for energy
efficiency and clean energy solutions, a portfolio Company of National
Technology Enterprises Company (NTEC), together with the Kuwait Scientific
Research Institute (KISR) have announced the first-of-its-kind 100%
self-sufficient energy solutions site at this power levels based purely on
renewable energy sources. This Clean Power Site was inaugurated on October
22nd at Kuwait Scientific Research Institute (KISR).
This ground-breaking project was built by Heliocentris in partnership with
KISR, using the latest green technology and energy management systems. The
company will also provide the core technologies and technical know-how for
the Clean Power Site going forward.
Joint programmes established between Heliocentris and KISR will ensure the
continuity and sustainability of the collaboration, transferring knowledge
of green technologies into the region.
Dr Naji Mohamed Al-Mutairi, Director General of KISR, said: 'KISR has grown
over the years to become a unique organization, and that we are the first
in the region to implement a Clean Power Site only further emphasizes our
forward-thinking capabilities. Our plans for the future include creating
specialized centres of excellence, and, based on our strong knowledge and
research into fuel sources, environment and urban development, this energy
solution from Heliocentris and NTEC is a positive step towards the KISR
becoming a sustainable example for the Middle East.'
Anas Meerza, GM of NTEC, said: 'The inauguration of the GCC's first Clean
Power Site is a milestone effort that NTEC is proud to be part of. This
comes in line with our clear strategy and goals mandated by the Kuwait
Council of Ministers, to explore and deliver leading technology to the
country's major stakeholders. Our participation in this project comes from
a desire to initiate ground-breaking technologies in Kuwait and the region.
This, the first self-sufficient energy solution, is a breakthrough that we
hope more countries in the Middle East will adopt as we move towards
sustainability.'
Ayad Abul-Ella, CEO of Heliocentris AG said: 'The inauguration of this
clean power site constitutes the next milestone on Heliocentris' way from
energy efficiency to commercial grade zero emission solutions. The
combination of Wind Turbine, Solar Modules, on site hydrogen generation,
Fuel Cell Systems and deep cycle batteries into one integrated industrial
grade solution, designed by Heliocentris' engineers and based on
Heliocentris' leading energy management system, ensures a 100%
self-sufficient off-grid power supply at real-life conditions.We are very
pleased to herewith be ready to invite leading Information and
Communication Companies as well as Oil and Gas Entities, to see and learn
with us more about the capabilities of such clean power technology.'
The Industrial Grade Clean Power Site at KISR, representing the latest in
German technology, will establish a hub for applied research, and will be a
focal point for a variety of industrial customers from across the GCC
region.
Inaugurating this initial solution is part of Kuwait's strategy to become a
leader in Green and Environmentally-friendly practices. The renewable
energy sources will have a power output of up to 16 kilowatts of
electricity. Backup power is provided by a battery bank and a fuel cell
system; the required hydrogen can be generated on site with an electrolyser
utilizing excess renewable power from the primary sources. The diesel
generator only runs as an additional backup in case of unfavorable weather
conditions.
KISR's Clean Power Site will reduce carbon emissions by up to several
hundred tonnes per year compared to conventional solutions based on fossil
energy sources.
This project is managed by the Heliocentris branch office located in
Silicon Oasis, Dubai, which has started operations end of 2011 with local
staff including Sales, Solution Engineering and Project Management. This
underlines the importance of the Middle East Africa region as a growth
driver and is at the same time a further sign of Heliocentris' strong
commitment to this region. Heliocentris and NTEC have entered into a Joint
Venture agreement and are in the process of launching Heliocentris Kuwait.
