As a small island nation in the South Pacific, the Cook Islands faces unique challenges in energy infrastructure, and this project, covering 1. 2MW of solar photovoltaic arrays and a 1MW/4MWh battery energy storage system, aimed to supply 65-70% of Aitutaki Island's annual.
We studied the fluid dynamics and heat transfer phenomena of a single cell, 16-cell modules, battery packs, and cabinet through computer simulations and experimental measurements.
