attery energy storage systems (BESS) can enhance grid reliability, capacity and resilience through energy storage and delivery. Volvo Penta’s energy-dense BESS subsystems - recently revealed at the BAUMA exhibition in Germany - are purpose-built to enable OEMs to build transportable, high-performance BESS solutions supporting the energy transition in industries where energy density is essential.
A spokesman comments:
"The Volvo Group is at the forefront of battery development. Our solution is built on their heritage of serving heavy-duty applications and are engineered to meet the Group’s highly set safety and performance standards. The Volvo Group’s investments in battery cell and pack manufacturing around the world is aimed at securing capacity and large-scale series production."
Mobile versions of Volvo Penta's BESS can be used to charge electric or electrified machines on a worksite. These can be recharged when needed at a remote location and returned to support machine charging. Larger permanent installations using multiple units can be used as backup power for critical infrastructure, including data centres.
Volvo Penta’s BESS subsystems have been designed to provide users with an energy-dense solution with an advantageous C-rate. This helps ensure efficient energy storage with rapid charge and discharge capabilities, which is ideal for applications where energy reliability and swift power delivery are crucial., reports Volvo Penta.
