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 battery storage container?

Basically, they’re just shipping containers that have a battery management system installed in them, which makes them a pretty cool and cost-effective way to store loads of energy. The best part is that they’re mobile and modular, so they’re easy to move, install and change to fit your needs.

Can a shipping container be used for battery storage?

Our engineers can convert shipping containers into safe and secure storage for a range of batteries, including large and industrial Lithium-Ion batteries. See the list of advantages below for battery storage shipping containers:

What are lithium ion batteries?

Lithium-ion batteries are the go-to for rechargeable batteries in consumer electronics and they’re now becoming the standard for transportation, industrial and power-storage battery applications. As this technology continues to evolve, we’re seeing new sizes, complexities, energy densities and battery components pop up.

What are battery energy storage systems?

Battery energy storage systems are an essential asset within the energy mix. They can be utilized both behind-the-meter to give energy users more control over their energy and reduce costs and front-of-the-meter to help stabilize and bring more resilience to the grid.

Are energy storage containers a viable alternative to traditional energy solutions?

These energy storage containers often lower capital costs and operational expenses, making them a viable economic alternative to traditional energy solutions. The modular nature of containerized systems often results in lower installation and maintenance costs compared to traditional setups.
