Product Features

Cost Effective
with High Energy Density

SolarEdge's containerized battery solution can be discharged at a high C-rate. This feature enables the KCN to be installed in the area with limited space due to its compact space occupied and it can be utilized for multiple purposes (e.g. frequency regulation + ramp rate control). By utilizing high energy type cells, the KCN can also be customized to store very large amounts of energy within a limited space.

Convenience of
Expanding C
apacity

SolarEdge's containerized battery solution is composed of SolarEdge’s Battery Modules and SolarEdge’s Battery Racks with fast and easy connectivity (in series/parallel). The option of parallel connection allows the customer to easily increase the energy capacity while maintaining the same system voltage. For the service status of critical mission, containerized systems can remain operating while allowing the replacement of modules within racks without interruption.

Voltage Stability
and Power Security

SolarEdge's containerized battery solution is an optimal solution to maintain a stable voltage and it also provides backup power capabilities for numerous applications such as power transmission, electricity generation, etc. SolarEdge's system-level Battery Management System (BMS) provides a new paradigm in the energy industry. The BMS can elevate the financial value of the ESS and facilitate its application to an electric power supply, power backup system, renewable energy integration, etc. SolarEdge's containerized battery solution's key role is to stabilize the power grid for large scale systems interconnected with PV and Wind power.

Energy Storage Container Infrastructure

SolarEdge Containerized Energy Storage can be used in various applications, such as peak load shaving, frequency regulation, renewable energy storage, micro-grid and UPS. In 10ft / 20ft / 40ft mobile containers with ISO certification, you can also install a battery capacity of 250kWh-5MWh.

Cooling and Air Conditioning System

Other Company HVAC System

Ambient Cooling System

The ambient conditions of battery containers are usually controlled by 5~6 HVAC units that control the environmental conditions of the entire 40 ft container.


Cons

  • A huge amount of energy is required to cool the entire container
  • Very difficult to concentrate cooling where heat is produced
  • Ambient temperature affects cooling in the container

SolarEdge HVAC System

Direct Cooling System

The systems use SolarEdge's battery container, which features a direct cooling design in which the container's Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning(HVAC) system only regulates temperatures inside the system's racks (1/6 of entire container volume) rather than the entire container. This results in 70 percent fewer air conditioning auxiliary loads than standard containers.
The Direct Cooling System connects SolarEdge Racks to the HVAC system via an air duct so the cool air can reach the heat source directly.


Pros

  • The cooling effect is almost immediate and very efficient
  • Ambient conditions do not affect the operation

Introduction to Battery Array

Customized Requirements

  • Life expectancy up to 8,000 Cycles (@ 80% DoD, 25±3°C, 1C/1C, SOH 70%) *Cycle life may vary with the battery type.
  • Customized pre-sales and after-sales technical services

Installation Performance Case

  • The shipment and installation of ESS high-power and large-scale energy storage systems exceeded 413MW, with a total of 85 cases in 35 countries, including Australia, Germany, South Korea, the United States, Singapore, Hong Kong, etc.
