Product Gallery: Aggreko Launches New Battery Storage Systems for Greater Flexibility and Efficiency

Aggreko now offers two mid-node battery energy storage systems (BESS). According to the company’s website, its 250 kW/575 kWh and 500 kW/250 kWh battery solutions are used across a wide variety of sectors, including on- and off-grid construction applications to increase flexibility, reduce emissions and control costs.

“BESS is a fast way to move away from excessive generator runtime, controlling fuel consumption while also giving you a way to deal with load challenges and peaks. Our 250 kW capacity batteries are delivered in self-contained packages with everything included, alongside our extensive expertise, so that you can achieve those benefits even sooner.

Our plug-and-play 250 kW battery solutions can be operated in island mode, in parallel with another BESS for additional capacity, or in a hybrid solution with a generator.”

“Built for rapid deployment, our 500 kW capacity batteries are a fast way to increase your efficiency, on or off the grid. Packaged with everything you need – from fire protection to HVAC – they’re an effective way to store and reuse energy, increasing your flexibility while reducing fuel consumption. Whether you’re dealing with variable loads, consumption that outpaces the grid, or noise issues with generators, these 500-kilowatt units can help.”

Specs for the 250 kW BESS include the 575 kWh energy capacity (with 518 usable), 480 V, 60 Hz, wide operating temperature range, energy conversion system including inverter and charger, overload capability of ≤10% of nominal value, 24/7 Aggreko remote monitoring (ARM), and UL 9540 and CSA 22.2 compliance.

Specs for the 500kW BESS include the 250 kWh energy capacity (with 221 usable) and similar benefits and features of the 250 kW model.
