Aggreko Unveils Two New Battery Storage Systems for C&I Applications
Aggreko, the UK-based energy solutions provider, has launched two new mid-sized battery storage systems designed to meet a variety of on and off-grid commercial and industrial applications.
The company has introduced a 250 kW / 575 kWh and a 500 kW / 250 kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery storage system. These plug-and-play solutions can operate in island mode or be integrated into hybrid power stations.
The containerised design of the batteries includes inverters, HVAC, fire protection, and auxiliary components in a single unit. This ensures a streamlined and efficient installation process. Aggreko has prioritised flexibility in the design, enabling easy movement and transportation of the systems to diverse locations and projects.
These two new battery storage systems are a significant addition to Aggreko's existing offerings, expanding upon the capabilities of their smaller 30 kVA and 60 kVA systems. The new mid-node solutions cater to larger projects and a wider range of applications across various sectors.
The 250 kW / 575 kWh system boasts a usable energy capacity of 518 kWh and a minimum charge time of two hours. It operates at an AC input/output voltage of 480 V and is capable of functioning in temperatures ranging from -20°C to 50 °C. The system measures 2991 mm x 2438 mm x 2896 mm and weighs 11 tonnes.
The 500 kW / 250 kWh system, on the other hand, provides a usable energy capacity of 221 kWh with a minimum charge time of 0.5 hours. It also operates at an AC input/output voltage of 480 V and can operate within a temperature range of -20°C to 50 °C. The system dimensions are 2991 mm x 2438 mm x 2896 mm, with a weight of 10.5 tonnes.
Aggreko's new battery storage systems are expected to play a crucial role in supporting the transition towards a more sustainable energy future. The company's focus on flexibility, scalability, and reliability makes these systems an attractive option for a wide range of commercial and industrial customers seeking to enhance their energy resilience and reduce their carbon footprint.
