The benefits Through BESS, AEG PS provides an energy storage system to meet the needs of a quickly changing energy market. It provides a high degree of availability, reliability and built-in flexibility to make every solution available almost regardless of application. A turnkey, easily-delivered solution that can be adjusted to meet the specific needs of any customer was set as a high priority as was the ability to be easily configured in parallel with other modules. For microgrid applications the ability to readily handle a “black start” situation was also important. Finally, the solution...

Modular storage solutions Always the right sized solution Robust, reliable, field-tested power conversion Turnkey modularity The components of a BESS solution are combined within a fully integrated, turnkey containerized solution developed specifically for the customers requirements. This makes it easily transportable and simple to locate at the customers pre-prepared site, allowing flexibility in terms of positioning, safety and connection to the grid. Depending on the selected battery technology and the location, the container can be equipped for extreme weather conditions, for example,...

Converter cabinet Containerized solution Operational effectiveness Each battery container can contain at least 150 cells of the largest battery type delivering a nominal DC voltage of 300 V. The storage converter container includes the SC unit and acts as the heart of the BESS operation. From here the power is delivered to the grid with monitoring handled via the power plant controller software. Expansion is simple with additional turnkey containers delivered to site when required. The basic BESS module will deliver: • Nominal power of 1 MW • Nominal capacity of 1 MWh • Grid connection 10 –...

On-grid competence Tried and proven technology For on-grid projects, AEG Power Solutions is focusing most of its efforts to begin dealing with the changes anticipated in global energy markets. With the decommissioning of all German nuclear power plants scheduled for 2022 and the goal of having 80 % of Germany’s electricity generated through renewable energy by 2050, AEG PS is gaining a lot of experience of on-grid connection within its domestic market. Load leveling Peak demand shifting Typical on-grid connection of BESS The great danger of largescale disruption to power generation and...

Future Proof Energy storage solutions Future energy storage systems Current energy storage systems There are many battery technologies available, such as lithium-ion, lead-acid, NiCd, Vanadium Redox-Flow, sodium-sulphur or ZEBRA. Lead-acid batteries cannot be charged at the same rate as lithium-ion batteries, but their discharging behavior is equivalent. In general, AEG Power Solutions’ BESS is already able to use any battery technology that the customer requests today. However, at the moment AEG PS focuses on lead-acid and lithium-ion technologies. Lead-acid batteries are a proven...

Off-grid competence Concentrating our efforts on the sun-belt countries, where solar insolation is deemed very high, AEG Power Solutions is already working in South Africa, Australia and the Pacific island nations. The focus is on photovoltaic/ BESS combinations of technology to power specific applications (e.g. mobile telephone service solutions in New Caledonia) or batteryaided grid connection of PV applications (e.g. Pacific island groups) to deliver additional short-term power at peak usage times. We are also working with a number of remote mining companies in Africa where it is more...

Current off-grid electrification Existing off-grid electrification typically includes a diesel generator providing the power. This conventional solution is, at first sight, economical, but is becoming less viable as a long-term solution. With diesel there are major challenges, often due to difficult access in remote areas: In an effort to overcome the challenges involved in making renewable energy sources as consistent as diesel, AEG Power Solutions engineers have designed BESS for use in conjunction with multiple power sources, in particular, renewable energy sources. Off-grid power...

Bess Components TKS-SC TKS-SC container solutions Protect SC.250/500 central converters A completely integrated solution, the container includes metering and monitoring components as well as communications infrastructure. The single source solution ensures smooth battery storage operations, in close cooperation with the grid operator. The container station comprises a pair of Protect SC.250 or SC.500 converters along with a medium-voltage transformer and switchgear. AEG Power Solutions’ BESS is based on the highly successful Protect PV range solar inverter, which delivers solutions for...
