Namhlanje ukusetyenziswa kwesithuthi sombane kuya kusanda kwaye kungoko ke, ubuchwepheshe obenza ukuba busebenze ngakumbi, baphuhliswa ngakumbi nangakumbi. Ugcino lwaMandla eAlbufera yinkampani enkulu enikezelwe kugcino lwamandla ombane kunye neebhetri kwaye inyusile Iprojekthi yeSALSA (Inkqubo yeZithuthi eziCocekileyo ngeNkxaso yoGcino). Le projekthi isekwe ekudalweni kwenethiwekhi yeemoto zombane ezinamanqaku okutshaja amandla ombane avuselelekayo.
Amandla ahlaziyekayo yindawo yokudibanisa uqoqosho kwaye inegalelo kumlo ochasene notshintsho lwemozulu. Ngenxa yokuncitshiswa kokukhutshwa kwegesi eluhlaza, izinto ezinokuhlaziywa zisisixhobo esifanelekileyo sokuthintela ukufudumala kwehlabathi. Ingxaki ngezithuthi zombane zilele ukuzimela kwesithuthi. Nangona kunjalo, iprojekthi ye-SALSA isusa ukubaluleka kule nto ngokusetyenziswa kweebhetri apho iAlbufera Energy Storage ikhethekileyo.
Enkosi koku, eyokuqala Igridi efanelekileyo okanye i-smart grid eSpain apho iindlela zinamandla okuhlaziya amandla ezithuthi zombane ezixhotyiswa ngamandla ahlaziyekayo. Ezi grid smart zilawulwa ngolawulo lwedatha ngezixhobo zokubeka esweni kunye nokuqinisekisa ulungelelwaniso phakathi kwe Ukuveliswa kwamandla ngokutsha kunye Gcwalisa kwakhona usebenzisa iibhetri zeAlfufera Energy kuyo.
Iprojekthi iza kuqala ngothotho lwabaqhubi beenqwelomoya IHavana (Cuba), kodwa kukho izicwangciso zokwanda ngeMadrid, Ibiza, Torrelavega nasePernambuco eBrazil. Uthungelwano lweemoto zombane luqala kuphela ngeenjongo zokhenketho ukukhuthaza ukusetyenziswa kwamandla ahlaziyekayo.
Elisabeth guerreroUmphathi weprojekthi weSALSA uchaza oku kulandelayo:
Iprojekthi ye-SALSA iye yamkelwa ngokugqwesileyo kuzo zonke iimeko apho ithe yenziwa khona, kubandakanywa oomasipala kunye neenkampani, kwaye kuzo zonke iimeko amaqela asebenzayo ayilelwe ukufundisisa ukuphunyezwa kwayo. Ukuhamba kombane kufanelekile kwizixeko ezikhulu nakwimimandla yesiqithi, kuba ukuzimela kwezithuthi zombane kugubungela umgama wejografi kunye neemfuno zokusingqongileyo »
