A Heads of Terms agreement has been reached between JinkoSolar and Greece-based kIEFER to supply battery storage to Athens International Airport (AIA).
The large-scale storage solution will be JinkoSolar’s SunTera product, which will aid the airport in its mission to achieve net zero by 2025. On completion of the project, AIA will have the largest self-consumption system of any airport globally – eventually resulting in 100% self-consumption.
Frank Niendorf, JinkoSolar General Manager for Europe, says: “This emblematic project is the first utility-scale storage system to be installed in connection with a photovoltaic system awarded in Greece.
“We are excited to embark on this journey with a partner like kIEFER, whose dedication to green transition through innovation aligns perfectly with our own vision, to take responsibility for enabling a sustainable future.”
Christos Petrocheilos, kIEFER General Manager, adds: “SunTera aligns perfectly with our sustainable energy vision, and we believe this collaboration will greatly benefit our customers.”
