JinkoSolar Commissions 21.6 MWh ESS for US Projects

JinkoSolar Holding has completed the commissioning of 21.6 megawatt-hours (MWh) of energy storage systems (ESS) for Distributed Energy Infrastructure (DEI), a U.S.-based engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) firm. The systems are now operational under Massachusetts’ Solar Massachusetts Renewable Target (SMART) program.

The three ESS installations aim to enhance grid reliability and improve the performance and resilience of solar assets across the state. Each system uses a combination of DC and AC coupled configurations to optimize energy output and operational flexibility.

DEI led the full project execution, including development, design, procurement, construction and commissioning. JinkoSolar’s U.S.-based engineering team supported system design and ensured smooth integration with various Power Conditioning System (PCS) and Energy Management System (EMS) platforms.

“Collaborating with DEI on these projects has been a great opportunity to showcase the value of JinkoSolar's U.S. energy storage solutions and our local engineering expertise,” said Jeff Juger, Deputy General Manager and Head of ESS at JinkoSolar (U.S.) Inc.
