Smart Grid

Mae Hong Son Smart Grid

Mae Hong Son sits on a weak, remote grid that has to do several jobs at once: smooth solar output, trim generation-side peaks, hold voltage, and cover emergencies. None of that works without a battery and a control layer built to run together.

The challenge

What the client needed

Mae Hong Son sits on a weak, remote grid that has to do several jobs at once: smooth solar output, trim generation-side peaks, hold voltage, and cover emergencies. None of that works without a battery and a control layer built to run together.

Our solution

What we delivered

PEC installed a 5,175 kW / 6,192 kWh battery system and designed the EMS that runs it, so one system shaves peaks, smooths PV output, holds voltage, and stands by for emergencies at EGAT's site.

Why PEC

Why this project chose PEC

This job needed both hardware sized for that much power and software that could coordinate four grid services at once. PEC brought the BESS engineering and wrote the EMS in-house, delivering the project with Italthai Engineering.

Outcome

What happened in production

The system trims generation-side peaks and steadies the Mae Hong Son grid day to day; it was commissioned in November 2023.
