- Huawei’s Cruise Ni launched the Hybrid LUNA2000-215 Series in Lagos, citing Nigeria’s frequent grid collapse as the inspiration for the world’s first hybrid-cooled energy storage system.
- The new solution prioritises safety, efficiency, and profitability, while the Federal Fire Service endorsed Huawei’s quality.
Cruise Ni, green energy expert and Director of Digital Power Business at Huawei Nigeria, said the frequent collapse of Nigeria’s National Grid inspired Huawei to create the world’s first hybrid cooling storage system for industrial and commercial use.
He spoke at the launch of the LUNA2000-215 Series in Lagos on Friday, April 4. He identified unreliable electricity supply, rising energy costs, and falling solar technology prices as the main challenges holding back development in Africa. He also stressed the need for strong partnerships with original equipment manufacturers.
“As Africa is facing an electricity deficit, now is the best time for solar energy.” Mr Ni said. “We have provided our solution to meet different needs, and our focus is on safe operation. We have been able to make green power not just a dream but a reality.
He called the LUNA2000-215-2S10 a breakthrough in energy storage. It is the first Commercial and Industrial Energy Storage System (CIESS) to use air and liquid cooling. It also features advanced safety, thermal management, and power supply technology.
Mr Ni explained the product’s “Cell-to-Consumption (C2C) Dual-link Safety Architecture,” which ensures safety from the battery cell to the end user. The system allows rapid shutdown and includes strong fire suppression measures.
Huawei guarantees premium quality through careful design, testing, and production. The product achieves 99.999% inverter availability and meets the highest global safety standards.
Furthermore, the new storage system also delivers over 91.3% round-trip efficiency. Its smart power supply setup improves energy management and extends battery life. Huawei designed the system to fit different installation needs, reduce setup time, and cut costs. In addition, built-in digital tools help users boost performance and increase earnings.
Mr Esan Oladimeji, Head of ICT at the Federal Fire Service, confirmed the safety and quality of Huawei’s equipment. He emphasised that proper outdoor installations and reliable products help prevent risks.
“Safety drives the solar industry’s future,” Mr Oladimeji said. “Without safety, there’s no business. We urge the industry to choose safe, high-quality solar solutions.”
