Battery Energy Storage System

Volterra offers an array of turnkey Battery Energy Storage Systems available for installation. Our cell chemistry boasts 20,000 cycles which makes the batteries long-lasting with a very low degradation rate. We’re working with utilities and private companies to help with energy distribution/savings in North America.

As the renewable energy sector grows, so does the importance of energy storage. The Volterra BESS helps improve the reliability, availability and efficiency of your power supply. Volterra BESS is ideal for high-power applications such as spinning reserve or frequency regulation and plays a key part in hybrid power solutions.

Seamless Integration

Because all assembly of the unit occurs at our production facility with the specs and software configured for the specific project, the actual installation is swift and smooth.


Scalable

Both our 500KW and 1MW systems can be linked together for projects of any size. This is great for small communities or large grid-tie applications.

Benefits at a Glance

Enclosures with pre-installed liquid-cooled battery racks AC and DC outdoor-rated cabinet, which connects battery strings with the inverter and provides an interface for auxiliary power and communications. Volterra BESS can be paired with manufacturers’ leading inverter products which lends the flexibility to parallel a number of enclosures needed to configure an ESS to meet project needs and grid connection options.


Make your assets more flexible, reliable and profitable. Ideal for use in multiple applications(revenue stacking). Suitable for high-power and high-energy applications. Complete system integration from multiple sources.

Components

Volterra BESS consists of the following components:

  • System design

  • Full EPC

  • Site Commissioning

  • Product Suite integration Rated design life of 20 years, with a standard product warranty of two years.

  • Extended product warranties are available.

  • The enclosures can be anchored to the foundation by either bolting or welding.

Key Benefits

The enclosure is optimized to fulfil the following criteria:

  • Lowest lifecycle cost.

  • Smallest system footprint, given the selected system configuration.

  • Shortest overall deployment time (equipment+transport+installation + commissioning).

  • Minimized scope and complexity of installation.

  • Units are delivered to the site fully tested and with batteries and a cooling system. Volterra BESS is also easy to handle during transportation and installation; strategically placed lifting lugs provide the installer with options to optimally plan the onsite installation.

Features

Flexible design, optimized for use case:

  • VIEC BESS can host up to four liquid-cooled racks per enclosure, which can be linked together to form a complete system.

  • VIEC BESS can be installed as a single enclosure, or as a system of several parallel enclosures, enabling the most optimal configuration to meet project requirements.

  • Features include the ability to withstand wind, a high ingress protection design, and a long-duration surface treatment specification.

Safety

  • VIEC BESS is designed with safety at the forefront. It is fitted with a number of safety features such as UL9540A tested batteries, a 60-minute enclosure wall fire rating, fire detection and a selection of fire suppression methods, plus pressure relief panels on the roof.

  • VIEC BESS is designed to meet international safety standards. Rugged design and high availability:

  • VIEC BESS is designed with individual rack-based cooling circuits, careful equipment selection and high seismic capabilities, catering for a long lifespan in all conditions with minimum service interventions.
