The 2024 Sahel Energy Summit showcased three emerging technologies specifically adapted to Ouagadougou's climate: These modular units store excess solar heat in ceramic bricks at 1,500°C - four times cheaper than battery arrays for overnight power generation.
[pdf] Our Peak Shaving Energy Storage Systems are engineered to store excess energy during low-demand periods and release it during peak times. This capability significantly reduces energy costs for users by minimizing peak demand charges.
[pdf] When solar and wind generation fluctuate, energy storage systems use valley filling to charge during low demand and peak shaving to discharge during high demand. This stabilizes renewable energy output and improves grid reliability. Types of Renewable ESS Solutions
[pdf] Peak shaving refers to the process of reducing electricity consumption during times of peak demand. In simple terms, it means using less power from the grid when it’s most expensive—usually during the busiest hours of the day.
[pdf] As of March 2025, the global energy storage market has ballooned to $78 billion, with lithium-ion batteries commanding 62% of installations . But here's the kicker—Brazil holds 18% of the world's lithium reserves yet contributes less than 5% to global battery production.
[pdf] Air storage vessels vary in the thermodynamic conditions of the storage and on the technology used: 1. Constant volume storage ( caverns, above-ground vessels, aquifers, automotive applications, etc.)2. Constant pressure storage (underwater pressure vessels, hybrid pumped hydro / compressed air storage)
