But instead of panic, there's calm - because Chief Engineer Dr. Elona Kovaçi and her team at the Tirana Times Energy Storage System have built what locals now call "the battery that never sleeps."
[pdf] The project, built by the Chinese state-run energy giant PowerChina and financed by Zambia’s national utility ZESCO, is designed to stabilize power for mining operations, the lifeblood of Zambia’s economy.
[pdf] Well, Tirana's new 84MW/168MWh battery storage system – the largest in Southeast Europe – is flipping that script. Operational since February 2025, this $73 million project stabilizes a grid where renewable energy penetration jumped from 12% to 34% in just three years [4].
[pdf] Our Chinese and African teams worked together to provide one-stop services from survey, design, to installation: ✅ Accurate design and planning completed in 7 days ✅ Precision production in 30 days + 100 environmental simulation tests ✅ Efficient installation and commissioning in 15 days Today, this power station provides stable electricity to local villages, setting a new benchmark for China-Africa green energy cooperation!

[pdf] Here's the kicker: 1 kg of phase change material (PCM) can store up to 180 times more heat energy than water alone [2]. Talk about packing a thermal punch! Major players like Midea have already jumped on the PCM bandwagon.
