TANFON Solar has successfully engineered a customized energy solution for a gravel plant in Africa, specifically designed to address high operational costs and ensure production continuity.
| Parameter | Detail |
| Total Equipment Power | 1.12 MW |
| Existing Backup | 1 MW Diesel Generator (running 24 hours/day) |
| Effective Production | 16–18 hours per day |
| Daily Energy Consumption | 8,760 MWh per year (High) |
| Load Dynamics | Day: 380 kW (Equipment); Night Peak: 600 kW (Equipment + Living Area) |
| Core Need | Absolute guarantee of production continuity and cost reduction. |
TANFON's Customized Solution Design:
| Component / Design Feature | Specification | Key Benefit |
| Inverter System | 1.5 MW (Sized for 20-millisecond instantaneous peak load) | Eliminates Overload Risk, guaranteeing absolute production continuity. |
| Photovoltaic (PV) System | 1.5 MW | Powers daily production while simultaneously charging batteries. |
| Energy Storage (ESS) | 4 MWh | Allows for 8–10 hours of pure battery power at night, drastically cutting diesel consumption. |
| Intelligent Power Management | Smart ATS Switching | Solar Priority. Diesel generator serves as backup, activating only when batteries are low (provides direct power without oil charging), ensuring the most efficient and economical operation. |
Absolute Production Continuity: The 1.5 MW inverter is specifically designed to handle the 20-millisecond instantaneous peak load, entirely removing the risk of system overload and ensuring stable operations.
Ultimate Cost Control: The integrated 1.5 MW PV and 4 MWh ESS allow the plant to switch from high-cost diesel to virtually free solar power for 8–10 hours overnight, significantly reducing operational expenses.
Comprehensive Lifecycle Support: Backed by 17 years of experience in the African market and complete lifecycle support, TANFON provides more than a system; it delivers a core production asset that safeguards your business.
This is more than just a solar system; it's a core production asset that safeguards your business. It means absolute production continuity and ultimate energy cost control.

The King of the Democratic Republic of the Congo has provided a solar energy storage power station system for the village of Bunkeya to meet the electricity needs of 2500 small households in the village. As the village currently lacks access to the grid, the King requested the design of a 1MW solar panel system paired with a 1.8MWh lithium battery storage system to power the entire village.
