Controls and hardware
Manufacturer and model are shown only when a source names them. Generic descriptions are not converted into guessed product assignments.
Recovered detail
Concise system facts recovered from the historical project record. Treat these as historical unless a newer primary source confirms them.
The world’s first megawatt-scale renewable energy plus storage system, currently being built on the island of Graciosa in the Azores (Portugal), will set new standards for islands worldwide. [1]
The centerpiece of the system is a fully automated, intelligently managed 2.8 megawatt battery park integrated into the intelligent energy management system developed by Younicos. [1]
In addition, the system will incorporate wind (4.5 MW) and solar (1 MW) power resources, and intelligent inverters. [1]
