The Chinese manufacturer claims its new commercial-scale battery uses 314 Ah cells with a lifespan of 15,000 cycles. Chinese photovoltaic giant Trina Solar has unveiled a 5 MWh energy storage system in strategic regions including Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa. Called Elementa 2 Pro 5 MWh, the system uses 314 Ah cells with a lifespan of 15,000 cycles. The Elementa 2 Pro uses EV-grade cells that undergo rigorous abuse testing to ensure intrinsic safety, the company said. A triple-layer electrical protection system, combined with an emergency stop function, provides comprehensive safety across the entire cabinet, power conversion system (PCS), and energy management system (EMS), ensuring stable operation in a variety of environments. The systems are IP55 and IP67 certified and come in a standard 20-foot cubic container configuration, with dimensions of 6,058 mm x 2,896 mm x 2,438 mm and a weight of 40.5 tons. The batteries use liquid cooling and can operate in ambient temperatures between -30°C and 55°C. They can also operate at altitudes of up to 2,000 meters. Typical operating time is 2 to 8 hours. Its compact side-by-side and one-behind-the-other design significantly reduces the footprint, addressing space constraints in urban and industrial environments, says Trina. Furthermore, state-of-the-art noise reduction technology reduces operating noise to just 70 dB, making it an ideal choice for noise-sensitive locations. |
