Containerized energy storage project

What is a containerized battery energy storage system?

Containerized Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are essentially large batteries housed within storage containers. These systems are designed to store energy from renewable sources or the grid and release it when required. This setup offers a modular and scalable solution to energy storage.

What is a containerized energy storage solution?

A containerized energy storage solution makes it easier to ship and transport the storage system to the last mile without much hassle.

Why do we need large energy storage systems?

With new-age and conventional utility companies joining the movement to build large-scale renewable energy projects, there is a demand for large energy storage systems that can meet the rigorous demands of the grid while also handling the intermittency of wind and solar energy plants.

What is a containerized Bess?

That way, if you experience an outage or an extreme weather event, you have a reliable source of backup power. Containerized BESS can easily be scaled up or down based on demand, making them suitable for both small-scale and large-scale applications, from powering a residential home, to storing energy at a wind farm.

What is the largest European battery-based energy storage project?

In May 2023, we launched our largest European battery-based energy storage project at the Antwerp platform in Belgium. With its 40 containers, the site will develop a capacity of 75 MWh, which is equivalent to the daily consumption of almost 10,000 homes.

What are the different types of energy storage systems?

• Flow batteries: Utilize liquid electrolytes, ideal for large-scale storage with long discharge times. • Flywheels: Store energy in the form of kinetic energy, suitable for short-term storage and high-power applications.
