URL More about University of the Nations (Kona, Hawaii) - EnSync Energy (formerly ZBB Energy)
EnSync Energy, through its Pacific region project developer Holu Energy, is developing a combined solar energy distributed generation and advanced energy management system project at University of the Nations, located on the island of Hawaii. The total system features a 412-kilowatt solar photovoltaic unit, EnSync's intelligent energy management platform and hybrid energy storage technology to lower the university's electricity costs via a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), which was first announced on July 7, 2015. The state-of-the-art technology will provide the university protection against power outages, while also benefiting the electricity grid by easing pressure on it.
