Imagine a world where your commercial parking lot does more than just shield cars from the elements. What if it became a dynamic, revenue-generating asset, slashing energy bills and positioning your company as a leader in sustainability? This is no longer a futuristic concept but a present-day reality made possible by integrated solar carport and battery storage (PV-storage) systems. This innovati...
When discussing energy storage projects, the terms MW and MWh appear frequently. Many people are confused by these two abbreviations: what exactly do they mean and what's the difference? Simply put, MW is a unit of power, and MWh is a unit of energy. In power systems, MW and MWh are core metrics for describing system capabilities. Understanding the difference between these two concepts is as cruci...
1. Definition of Independent Energy Storage Independent energy storage refers to new energy storage projects that utilize physical energy storage, electrochemical energy storage, electromagnetic energy storage, phase change energy storage, and other technologies other than pumped hydro storage. These projects possess independent metering and control technologies, are connected to dispatch automati...
When we discuss today's energy revolution, "battery" is undoubtedly one of the core keywords. From speeding electric cars to the large-scale energy storage power stations silently supporting the power grid, battery technology is changing our lives at an unprecedented pace. However, did you know that the batteries that power electric cars and those used to store wind and solar energy, while both ca...
Designing a battery energy storage system (BESS) is a critical step toward achieving energy independence, optimizing renewable energy use, and ensuring backup power. Whether for residential, commercial, or industrial applications, a well-designed BESS can significantly reduce electricity costs, enhance grid stability, and contribute to a sustainable future. In this blog, we’ll walk through t...
The international energy storage market in October was turbulent, with intense trade and industrial policy maneuvering between China and the United States causing ripples in the global clean energy supply chain. On October 9th, my country's Ministry of Commerce and General Administration of Customs jointly issued an announcement imposing export controls on key items such as lithium batterie...
Common battery packs generally use three cooling methods: liquid cooling, air cooling, and natural cooling. Battery cells are quite sensitive to temperature, with an optimal operating temperature generally between 15 and 35°C. Temperature variations cause varying degrees of capacity reduction in lithium batteries; specifically, at -10°C, usable capacity is 70%; at 0°C, it's 85%; and at...
User-side energy storage, as the name suggests, is an energy storage system installed on the electricity user's side, widely used in industrial and commercial parks, high-energy-consuming enterprises, and residential communities. It, along with power-side energy storage and grid-side energy storage, constitutes the three major application areas of energy storage, but its **core characterist...
Recently, China's first large-capacity all-solid-state battery production line has been completed and entered the small-batch testing and production stage. So, what exactly is an all-solid-state battery? Why is it considered a key driver of the future development of the new energy vehicle industry? Today, let's take a closer look at the several rounds of upgrades all-solid-state batteries h...
