🔋 1️⃣ 𝗕𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘁
The core of the system.
This is where electrical energy is chemically stored inside battery cells and modules. It determines the system’s capacity, performance, and lifecycle.
🧠 2️⃣ 𝗕𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 (𝗕𝗠𝗦)
The intelligence behind the battery.
𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗠𝗦:
✔️ Monitors battery health & performance
✔️ Controls charging and discharging cycles
✔️ Balances cell voltages
✔️ Tracks temperature
✔️ Prevents overcharging, deep discharge & overheating
🔄 3️⃣ 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 (𝗣𝗖𝗦)
𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿.
Since batteries store energy in DC and grids operate on AC, the PCS:
⚡ Converts AC ➝ DC during charging
⚡ Converts DC ➝ AC during discharging
🌞 4️⃣ 𝗥𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 (𝗥𝗘𝗦) 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
BESS is often paired with:
☀️ Solar PV systems
🌬️ Wind turbines
🌐 5️⃣ 𝗚𝗿𝗶𝗱 / 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿
The grid interface and optimization layer.
This controller:
🔹 Manages power injection & absorption
🔹 Maintains frequency & voltage stability
🔹 Optimizes plant-level performance
🔹 Ensures regulatory compliance
