Battery Energy Storage System :
Power generation through renewable energy sources like Solar and Wind is widely used nowadays due to climate related restrictions on fossil fuel based power generation. Renewable energy means of Power generation are reliant on weather conditions and hence availability of power from these type power sources need a storage system which storages the generated power and delivers it when weather conditions are not favourable.
For example, solar power generation during night time is unavailable.
Battery energy storage systems which use Lithium Ion or other type of Battery cells are one of the fastest growing technologies in the sustainable energy industry. Energy storage systems have become widely accepted as efficient ways of reducing reliance on fossil fuels and oftentimes, unreliable, utility providers. A battery energy storage system is the ideal way to capitalize on renewable energy sources, like solar energy. The adoption of energy storage systems is on the rise in a variety of industries.
Satcon is being involved with several clients worldwide to participate in design and engineering of BESS for renewable energy projects. The scope includes selection of battery capacity, type, layout, control and protection schemes, connection diagrams, preparation of technical specifications. Satcon has the expertise and relevant standards to contribute to this type of projects.
