Sungrow has announced the completion of its largest DC-coupled solar-plus-storage installation in Australia, the Cunderdin hybrid project in Western Australia. The project, developed by Global Power Generation (GPG), features 136 MVA of inverter capacity and 55MW/220MWh of storage capacity, making it the country’s largest such installation to date. Sungrow’s DC-coupled system architecture connects the solar PV system directly to the battery storage, minimizing energy loss and improving efficiency.
The project features 80 units of Sungrow’s PowerTitan energy storage system, equipped with advanced thermal control technology and AI-powered cell-level monitoring. The system’s modular design streamlines installation, maintenance, and operation, ensuring efficient performance and reliability. The project plays a critical role in enhancing grid stability and renewable energy penetration in Western Australia’s South West Interconnected System (SWIS).
Sungrow’s expertise in grid connection solutions has been key to the project’s success, enabling high-efficiency integration into large-scale power systems. The company’s solution supports dynamic grid response, voltage regulation, and frequency control, ensuring smooth interaction with the SWIS. The project reflects the shared vision of Sungrow and GPG in advancing the clean energy transition in Australia, with Sungrow affirming its commitment to the country’s energy landscape.
The Cunderdin project marks a significant milestone for Sungrow in Australia, demonstrating the company’s technical leadership, commercial delivery capability, and long-term commitment to the country’s energy landscape. With this project, Sungrow has further solidified its position as a leader in the Australian clean energy market.
