Accelerated Product Development for Battery Energy Storage Systems
Nuvation Energy offers a dedicated team of experienced engineers who specialize in accelerating the product development of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) for their customers. The company provides a range of services that include BESS enclosure design, BESS subsystems, battery stack design, and more.
BESS Enclosure Design
The design of BESS enclosures is crucial and is influenced by various factors such as production requirements, power and energy density, site specifications, battery types, and scalability. Nuvation Energy's BESS design services encompass BMS integration, AC or DC coupled architectures, modular architectures, modified ISO containers, custom-designed enclosures, designs for Second Life EV cells and battery packs, mechanical, electrical, and system design, safety system design including fire and explosion mitigation, hydrogen detection, BESS controls and monitoring, and thermal management system design.
BESS Subsystems
Nuvation Energy also specializes in designing BESS subsystems that include crucial components like fire detection and remediation systems, hydrogen sensing and ventilation systems, thermal management systems (air or liquid), ground fault detection, emergency shutoff mechanisms, and connectivity to BESS controllers.
Battery Stack Design
Their expertise extends to designing battery stacks that meet specific criteria and integrating configurable BMS into these modules. Nuvation Energy's engineers can assist in optimizing existing stack designs or creating custom battery stacks tailored to the customer's requirements. They support various cell chemistries and form factors, including LTO, LFP, zinc, nickel, lead-acid, supercapacitors, and more, across form factors like prismatic, pouch, cylindrical, monobloc, and others.
Project Examples
Nuvation Energy has successfully completed various projects, including a custom energy storage system for a wastewater treatment plant in Santa Rosa, USA, where they collaborated with Trane to deliver a bespoke ESS solution. Additionally, in Oslo, Norway, they designed a containerized BESS utilizing used Nissan Leaf EV battery packs for ECO STOR, showcasing their expertise in handling Second Life EV batteries.
