Do Bess products need an external power supply?

Most BESS products on the market require an external power supply circuit for their auxiliary loads, although some have built-in circuits and do not need an external supply.

Why should you choose a Bess energy storage system?

The mobility and flexibility of the system enables novel applications and deployments where BESS previously were unused due to the non-flexible solutions. The system is modular, meaning that the energy storage capacity can be quickly adapted depending on the application case, in contrast to larger and bulkier solutions.

Do mobile Bess applications have communication interfaces?

This thesis project, carried out at Northvolt Systems, aims to analyze the existing and readily used communication interfaces for a specific set of mobile BESS applications. The analysis is performed by a literature review of typical mobile BESS applications with the identified corresponding communication interfaces.

What are the environmental conditions of a mobile Bess system?

Due to the flexible and mobile nature of mobile BESS, the environmental conditions can difer greatly for each system depending on the respective mobile deployments. Ranging from high temperatures and high humidity to the inverse during the same season, monitoring and control of the TMS is critical.

How much power does a Bess have?

The system is built of two main blocks. The PCS building block, responsible for the main control of the mobile BESS. The nominal power rating of the PCS block is 225 kVA, with a maximum peak power in the peak shaving mode of 275 kW . The second block is the modular battery pack.

Do I need backup power for a Bess auxiliary load?

For certain projects, backup power must be provided for the BESS auxiliary load as required by the BESS supplier or fire codes. Some BESS suppliers mandate uninterrupted power to maintain the operation of thermal management systems, ensuring battery temperatures remain within desired limits to minimize degradation.
