Frequently asked questions

We supply modular systems ranging from small commercial capacities in the hundreds of kWH to MWH solutions for industry and utility-scale. Thanks to our connections with leading PV component suppliers, we are able to offer solutions from smaller C&I projects; built on 400V system technology to utility-scale projects on 800V technology, including transformers for the 10-35kV HV connection voltage level.

Our battery storage systems are open for integration with a wide range of inverters and energy management systems thanks to standardized communication protocols. Every project and installation is unique, and even so, it is treated as such by us. If required, we can also provide a technical proposal including alternative solutions for each project. We work with suppliers of multiple EMS systems and individually select the appropriate solution for the project. We have European EMS brands.

The security of your data is addressed on several levels, one of which is the implementation of an EMS (Energy Management System) manufactured and developed in the EU. This service monitors and reduces BESS communication with the manufacturer’s cloud as you wish. In our portfolio we have a corresponding third party EMS for each BESS. For maximum security, we optionally provide customers with their own system-compatible servers to keep the equipment offline and safe.

The lifespan, the life cycle of a battery system, depends largely on how the system is used and can be up to 20 years of operation. The standard product warranty for battery systems is usually 2 years, but can be extended up to 15 years, depending on the manufacturer. For individual project needs, we are also able to offer a performance guarantee (minimum battery uptime guarantee), which ensures that the battery always has the appropriate capacity over time according to the defined battery usage scenario (number of charge and discharge cycles per day or year, ambient temperature and other parameters).

Yes, every project includes a technical assessment through online or offline meetings with solution managers, including a visit to the project site. The outcome of such a meeting is a specific bill of materials for the project, which is the basis for the preparation of a detailed quotation and overall solution from our side. In order to develop such a solution, the necessary cooperation from the customer is required regarding the provision of documents such as a connection agreement, a single-pole diagram of the expected project wiring and possibly other technical and project documentation.

In cooperation with selected EPC professional companies that have sufficient technical qualifications and practical experience in the preparation, implementation and operation of large battery storage systems, we are ready to ensure the implementation of such a turnkey system, from the project preparation phase to the actual start-up and connection of the entire system to the power grid. We select EPCs that we know have real experience and have already been tested on several projects.

The security of all components of critical infrastructure is one of the most important conditions for these systems. It is not only security during use, but also security during the preparation, implementation and commissioning of the entire system. We pay due attention to this entire issue and our suppliers also treat every project with the utmost precision in terms of security. Emphasis is also placed on the actual placement of individual elements, compliance with the manufacturer’s prescribed distances from buildings, schools and other facilities, preventing unauthorized persons from accessing the equipment, compliance with local fire and occupational safety rules and relevant legislation. During each system commissioning, the contractor always provides physical supervision of the commissioning itself, followed by thorough training on the entire system, including the rules of maintenance of the entire system during the warranty and post-warranty period.

Battery systems are currently being used for a variety of purposes and we generally try to discuss with our customers the possibility of diversifying the use of the battery and not just putting everything on „one card“. While many investors are now considering the use of BESS for the purposes of Power Balance Services, trends abroad from more stable markets show more scope for use for combinations of peak shaving, reduction of booked capacity and trading flexibility or daily trading.

Unique battery storage in an industrial area in the south of Moravia

Hodonín industrial area Tabačka

Implementation date: 6 March 2024

Home

The Hodonín industrial complex Tabáčka, a former tobacco factory with a history of over 150 years, is located in a strategic position between Brno and Vienna.

The complex provides facilities for 45 companies that use production areas, offices and warehouses. Currently, the complex boasts another significant environmental step – the installation of a unique battery storage facility.

Context and challenges

The site is struggling with increasing energy consumption, mainly due to the tenants’ manufacturing operations and logistics operations dependent on electric vehicles.

Even so, thanks to the combination of a 1200 kWp solar power plant, cogeneration and newly installed battery storage, it consumes 99% only green energy.

Solution

In cooperation with the installation company, we have been looking for the optimal solution to the energy needs of the site now and in the years to come. In the end, the choice fell on a unique container battery with a capacity of 4 MWh and an output of 2 MV. The installation is also interesting because it includes several basic components that are modular and easily replaceable. Each container contains 6 separate cabinets with 21 batteries in each, allowing for easy maintenance and eventual replacement of damaged parts.

Features and Benefits

There are several key benefits to the battery storage chosen:

  • Energy optimisation: allows you to buy energy at cheap spot prices and postpone its consumption to times when electricity is expensive.
  • Smoothing of peak demand: reducing the reserved capacity of the site to a minimum and smoothing peak demand.
  • Promoting green traffic: The combination with photovoltaic power plant and cogeneration ensures maximum green operation of the site.

Implementation

The installation and commissioning of the storage was carried out by PV Service plus. The site’s energy system is connected to the local distribution system, but primarily focuses on self-supply. The project also includes a master control system specifically developed for the needs of the site. The test run involved simulating various crisis situations such as charging multiple electric vehicles and simultaneous operation of the production facilities.

Results and impacts

Battery storage significantly improves the energy efficiency of the site. However, working with energy is increasingly important for industrial sites not only because of the cost of energy – the reason for batteries is also the risk of grid overload and meeting ESG conditions. The installation in Tabačka serves as an inspiration for other similar projects due to its power-to-size ratio.

Conclusion

The demand for efficient battery storage in the Czech Republic is growing and the Hodonín Tabačka site can be an inspiration for other companies that are still looking for their way to sustainable operation of industrial sites. The project demonstrates the successful use of modern technologies and provides inspiration for other companies and investors looking for green solutions.

This storage with a capacity of 200 kWh enables efficient management of the generated electricity and optimises its use according to current needs.

Solution

The Huawei Luna2000-200kWh battery storage offers an innovative and reliable solution to reduce electricity costs, reduce carbon footprint and overcome unexpected power outages. With an intelligent grid forming system, it provides higher voltage and frequency stability, allowing it to handle higher loads and operate reliably in various microgrid scenarios.

Features and Benefits

Huawei Luna2000-200kWh battery storage boasts advanced safety and optimization features. The real-time detection system of each individual battery cell enables early warning and quick shutdown in the event of a short circuit, preventing overheating and fire risk. An active fire protection system ensures automatic release of flammable gases when sensors detect heat, smoke and carbon monoxide, increasing operational safety.

Conclusion

The aim of this project is to increase the energy self-sufficiency of the building and to enable efficient storage of surplus energy produced from the PV plant, thereby increasing the overall efficiency of the system and reducing operating costs. This project is another step by Raylyst to promote renewable energy and modern energy management.
