All-in-one
Integrated Auxiliary transformer, Firefighting system, isolated HVAC system with liquid cooling option, Power Conversion System, simplified site installation.
690Vac or 400Vac option
Inverter options with 200kW/690Vac or 125kW/400Vac. For grid and solar parks.
PowerGrid™ components
Intelligent grid storage system in a container.

STACK
5 to 8 packs in series, with data bus, monitoring, data storage, active balancing of battery packs, stack DC bus monitoring, firefighting interface.
PACK
48 cells in series, with liquid temperature control system, active cell balancing and monitoring.
GPC
Storage Module Controller (GPC) to control and monitor all stacks and battery modules and monitor safety and store online statistical data for cells, battery packs and stacks.
INVERTERS
independent string inverters with 200kW 690Vac or 125kW 400Vac. Certified for Fingrid and Elering and for parallel operation and grid forming.
BESS
Power conversion units, auxiliary power, firefighting system, liquid temperature control system, weatherproof enclosures, sensors, switches.
Independent Inverters
Independent PCS for each battery stack allows variable DC voltage profiles to maintain optimum charge and discharge status of each battery stack over time. Can prevent capacity loss caused by cross current and increase lifetime discharge capacity.
Over time, charge and discharge performance of parallel battery stacks will vary due to divergences in the internal resistance of the cells. Tests have shown that:
- the capacity loss increases by up to 2 % per year when eight racks are connected in parallel compared to non-parallel connections.
- when two battery stacks are connected in parallel and the SOC differs by 8%, after a complete charge-discharge cycle, the total discharge capacity of the energy storage system with independent PCS inverters (or floating DC-DC controllers) is increased by up to 7%.
Independent stack inverters also add to the ESS reliability and availability as stacks can operate fully independently.
3 level Control Architecture
- Battery pack monitoring unit (BMU) cell balancing and monitoring ensures optimum cycle life and safety for each cell in a battery module.
- Stack Controller (CMU) in each battery stack for independent stack monitoring.
- Intelligent Storage System Controller (GPC) for cabinet monitoring and safety with separate Energy Management Controller to monitor and control PCS for energy trading or Frequency Reserve applications.
