Modular and fully integrated energy storage system
GridSolv Quantum is a fully integrated and modular energy storage system. Compact and minimalist in design, it ensures the lowest lifecycle costs and the smallest system footprint, plus minimised scope and complexity of EPC activities across locations and market applications.
The optimised energy storage system comprises the following main parts:
GridSolv Quantum can be paired with leading inverter manufacturer’s products, lending maximum flexibility for project-specific configuration and grid connection options.
Single enclosure installation or as a system of several parallel enclosures, enabling the most optimal configuration to meet project requirements. High seismic/wind speed capabilities, large temperature range, and high painting specification.
Units are delivered to site fully tested and with batteries and a cooling system.
Minimal field wiring, civil work and trenching needed to deploy an ESS.
Unit-to-unit DC connection and AC auxiliary distribution—as well as signals, and communication interconnection—which are provided as part of GridSolv Quantum scope of supply.
High system availability and a long lifespan with minimum service interventions.
GridSolv Quantum is designed with safety at the forefront. UL 9540A tested batteries, 60-minute fire rating, fire detection, pressure relief and a choice of fire suppression methods.
“This innovative storage solution is precisely what we needed to deliver solid operational and financial benefits for the City of Martinsville. The installation will enable us to help the City offset peak load periods and more effectively manage their overall energy usage and costs as well as their reliance on traditional peak energy resources.”
