In the critical period of today’s energy transformation, the importance of energy storage technology has become increasingly prominent, and Energy Storage Container, as a key equipment in the field of energy storage, is gradually becoming the focus of industry attention. It also has other names, such as PCS container or battery container. It integrates a complete set of energy storage systems, including a fire extinguishing system, module battery management system (BMS), rack, battery unit, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), DC panel, and power conversion system (PCS). It is an innovative energy storage solution.
Energy Storage Container is called a PCS container because its internal integrated power conversion system (PCS) is one of the core components. PCS undertakes the key task of AC/DC conversion in the entire energy storage system and plays a decisive role in efficiently utilizing and transmitting electric energy. Therefore, people often call it a PCS container to highlight its important function in power conversion. It is called a battery container because the battery unit is the core carrier of energy storage. The battery unit stores electric energy and is the basis for realizing energy storage and release. The entire container builds other auxiliary systems around the battery unit, so the name of the battery container emphasizes its essential attributes as a battery storage container.
Unique design advantages
- Integrated design, worry-free delivery
The integrated design of the energy storage container is a highlight. This design concept highly concentrates the originally dispersed energy storage system components in a container, just like concentrating a small energy storage power station in a compact space. During transportation, there is no need to transport each component separately, like traditional energy storage systems, and then perform complex on-site assembly. Taking a medium-sized energy storage project as an example, if traditional split energy storage equipment is used, multiple large trucks may be required to transport batteries, PCS, monitoring equipment, etc., during transportation, which is costly and prone to component loss or damage. The energy storage container only needs a large flatbed truck to complete the overall transportation, greatly simplifying the transportation process. After arriving at the project site, traditional split equipment may require a professional construction team to spend several weeks on installation and commissioning, involving a large number of line connections, equipment calibration, and other work. The energy storage container can be deployed quickly, usually only a few days to complete the simple positioning and wiring work, and can be put into use, greatly shortening the project construction cycle and saving users a lot of time and cost. - Sturdy shell, adaptable to complex
The energy storage container adopts the standard shell of outdoor containers, and its material is usually high-strength weathering steel. This steel has excellent corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance after special treatment. In coastal areas, the air contains a lot of salt, which is highly corrosive to metal structures. The weathering steel shell of the energy storage container can effectively resist the erosion of salt spray, and will not cause serious rust after long-term use, ensuring the structural strength of the shell. In desert areas, wind and sand are rampant, and strong winds carry sand particles to continuously impact equipment. The sturdy shell of the energy storage container can withstand the friction and impact of wind and sand to ensure that the internal equipment is not damaged. Even in extreme high or low temperature environments, such as the hot summer in the desert, the temperature can reach above 50℃, or in the cold winter in high latitudes, the temperature can be as low as -40℃, the insulation and heat preservation performance of its shell can effectively maintain the relative stability of the internal environment, providing reliable guarantee for the normal operation of the internal energy storage system. - Complete system composition
Fire protection system, safety guarantee
A complete fire suppression system is an important guarantee for the safe operation of energy storage containers. During long-term use, batteries in energy storage systems may cause fires due to various factors, such as internal short circuits, overcharging, and over-discharging. The smoke sensor in the fire suppression system can keenly capture smoke particles generated at the beginning of a fire. When the smoke concentration reaches the set threshold, an alarm signal is immediately sent to the control system. The temperature sensor monitors the temperature changes inside the container in real time and will also feed back information once the temperature rises abnormally. When these safety devices detect fire hazards, the control system will quickly start the fire extinguishing device. For example, the heptafluoropropane fire extinguishing device will quickly release heptafluoropropane fire extinguishing agent, which has the advantages of high efficiency in fire extinguishing, low toxicity, and no pollution to equipment. It can suppress the spread of fire in a short time, extinguish the fire in its infancy, minimize the losses caused by the fire, and ensure the safety of personnel and equipment. - Power system, stable core
The power system is the core component of the energy storage container, and each component works together to ensure stable operation. Battery cells are storage carriers of electrical energy. They are combined in series and parallel to form battery packs of different capacities and voltage levels to meet different energy storage needs. The module BMS is responsible for the refined management of each battery module, real-time monitoring of battery voltage, current, temperature and other parameters, and through technical means such as balancing control, it ensures the performance consistency of each battery module to avoid affecting the service life and safety of the entire battery pack due to performance differences of individual modules. Rack BMS manages from the battery rack level, and monitors and coordinates the battery pack on the battery rack as a whole. As the core of the entire battery management system, System BMS summarizes information at all levels, conducts comprehensive analysis and decision-making, and realizes the optimization control of the entire battery system. The DC panel is responsible for the distribution and management of DC power, and reasonably distributes the DC power output by the battery to various power-consuming devices. The power conversion system (PCS) undertakes the heavy task of AC/DC conversion. When charging, it converts AC power into DC power to charge the battery, and when discharging, it converts the DC power of the battery into AC power output to meet different power needs. The various components work closely together to ensure the stable and efficient operation of the power system.
Multiple applications and customized services
Wide application areas
The application scenarios of energy storage containers are extremely wide, and they play an important role in different fields. In various power stations, it is the key to promoting efficient use and stable supply of energy. In thermal power plants, energy storage containers can store excess electricity generated by thermal power units during low-load periods and release it during peak power consumption periods, thereby improving energy efficiency and reducing losses caused by frequent start-up and shutdown of units. In wind power plants, due to the intermittent and unstable nature of wind energy, energy storage containers can store excess electricity generated by wind power, supply power to the grid when there is no wind or insufficient wind, and ensure stable power output.
According to statistics, in some large wind farms, after being equipped with energy storage containers, the stability of power output has increased by more than 30%, effectively reducing the impact on the power grid. In solar power plants, energy storage containers can store electricity when there is sufficient sunlight, and release it at night or on cloudy days when there is insufficient sunlight, thereby achieving a continuous and stable supply of solar energy. In addition to the power plant field, in communities, energy storage containers can be combined with distributed energy systems to provide a stable power supply for community residents. When solar panels in the community generate excess electricity during the day, energy storage containers store it and supply power to residents at night or during peak power consumption periods, reducing the community’s dependence on traditional power grids.
At the same time, they can also take advantage of the peak-valley electricity price difference to help residents reduce electricity costs. In schools, energy storage containers can be used as emergency power sources. In the event of sudden power outages, they can provide power support for key school equipment such as lighting systems and emergency communication equipment to ensure the normal conduct of teaching activities. In scientific research institutions, energy storage containers can meet the power demand of experimental equipment with high requirements for power stability and reliability, ensuring the smooth conduct of experiments. In factories, energy storage containers can be used to balance the power load of the factory, store electricity during low power consumption, and release it during production peaks to avoid production interruptions caused by insufficient power. At the same time, electricity price policies can also be used to reduce electricity costs. In large data centers, energy storage containers can be used as backup power sources to quickly provide power when the city power is interrupted, ensure the normal operation of the data center, and prevent data loss and equipment damage.
