KOH LIPE ISLAND, Thailand, Aug. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Nestled in the southern Andaman Sea of Thailand, Koh Lipe Island boasts the Akira Lipe Resort, where LONGi Hi-MO X6 solar panels gleam on the rooftop, harnessing the sun's energy in this enchanting paradise.

Like many remote islands, Koh Lipe struggles with an unstable power supply. Though connected to Thailand's power grid, the island experiences frequent outages due to maintenance issues, severe storms, and system overloads.

In light of these power interruptions, Akira Lipe Resort has faced challenges in maintaining a stable power supply. During peak tourism seasons, surging electricity demands result in frequent voltage fluctuations and blackouts, compromising the visitor experience.

To ensure reliable electricity for its guests while reducing reliance on generators and cutting energy costs, the hotel opted to install LONGi Hi-MO X6 solar panels after careful consideration of various options, following the recommendation of Smart Solar Corporation Co., Ltd.

Hi-MO X6 panels excel in low-light conditions and demonstrate exceptional resilience against the heat and humidity of Koh Lipe. By efficiently converting natural light to electrical energy, the resort now enjoys a stable and sustainable power supply, alleviating previous electricity concerns and significantly reducing energy costs. To date, the panels have generated 550,000 kWh of electricity, meeting most of the resort's power needs and saving $33,000 monthly on electric bills, totaling an annual savings of $400,000. The environmental impact is also impressive, with a reduction in carbon emissions by 258 tons annually.

Under the mission of "To make the best of solar energy to build a green world", LONGi continues to support sustainable power solutions for islands worldwide, integrating solar power with ecotourism to promote sustainable island living.
