Reon Energy Signs a 13.75 MW Solar and 5.69 MWh REFLEX™ BESS Project with Arabian Yemen Cement Co. Ltd. (AYCCL)
Yemen, Middle East – 19/12/2023 — Reon Energy, Pakistan’s leading renewable energy solutions provider, is proud to announce the signing of a landmark agreement with Arabian Yemen Cement Co. Ltd., aimed at delivering a 13.75 MW Solar Plant and 5.69 MWh REFLEX™ BESS powered by SPARK™ at their facility in Yemen.
Arabian Yemen Cement Company (AYCCL) aimed to expand renewable penetration within its 30 MW captive powerhouse but faced critical stability challenges. Variations between solar output and fluctuating plant load, especially during extended shutdowns, led to high renewable curtailment and inefficient generator operation. Without advanced storage, the system lacked the flexibility to absorb excess solar or respond quickly to power fluctuations.
Reon deployed its REFLEX™ Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) to stabilize power fluctuations, minimizes solar curtailment, and optimizes genset performance under variable loads. Coupled with the SPARK™ Microgrid Controller, the solution enhances system reliability while reducing fuel consumption and improving efficiency. This intelligent integration enables AYCCL to achieve greater renewable utilization, cut energy costs by up to 20%, and lower its carbon footprint without compromising power stability.
This milestone sets a precedent for sustainable industrial transformation in challenging energy markets and reinforces Reon’s role as a pioneer in deploying advanced renewable and storage technologies across the region.
