How does a battery energy storage system work?

A battery energy storage system (BESS) works by using batteries to store and release electrical energy. The HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) system is an integral part of a BESS; it regulates the internal environment by moving air between the inside and outside of the system’s enclosure. With lithium battery systems, maintaining an optimal operating temperature and good air distribution helps prolong the cycle life of the battery system.

What is a modular battery energy storage system?

Modular BESS designs allow for easier scaling and replacement of components, improving flexibility and reducing lifecycle costs. Designing a Battery Energy Storage System is a complex task involving factors ranging from the choice of battery technology to the integration with renewable energy sources and the power grid.

What are the critical components of a battery energy storage system?

A battery energy storage system (BESS) consists of key components, with the battery being crucial. The battery comprises a fixed number of lithium cells wired in series and parallel within a frame to create a module.

How should a battery energy storage system be designed?

The PCS should be designed with this capability in mind. Peak Shaving: the battery energy storage system can discharge during periods of high demand to reduce peak load on the grid. The system should be sized appropriately to handle the expected peak demand reduction.

What safety standards do EVESCO's batteries meet?

EVESCO’s battery systems utilize UL1642 cells, UL1973 modules and UL9540A tested racks ensuring both safety and quality. Any lithium-based energy storage system must have a Battery Management System (BMS).

What is a battery management system in a BESS?

A battery management system (BMS) in a battery energy storage system (BESS) is a multi-tiered framework that allows real-time monitoring and protection of the battery. EVESCO's BMS provides this at the cell, module, string, and system level.
