BRUSSELS, July 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Sungrow, the global
leading PV inverter and energy storage system provider, is happy to
announce the supply of its state-of-the-art liquid-cooled BESS
(Battery Energy Storage Systems) solution, the PowerTitan, for the
800MWh Vilvoorde BESS project in Belgium. The project will be developed
by ENGIE, an international utility group who is a global
reference in low-carbon energy and services.
The system will be one of the largest ever installed in
Europe with a power capacity of
200MW/800MWh and is the first BESS project Sungrow will supply in
Belgium. Set for a grid connection
in 2025 this project will deliver power to up
to 96.000 households. Sungrow will supply 320 units of
its cutting-edge liquid-cooled energy storage system
PowerTitan for the ENGIE BESS project in Vilvoorde.
The PowerTitan is an efficient, safe, and innovative storage
solution that supports ENGIE to deliver energy. Due to the compact
design and the pre-assembled delivery, the PowerTitan saves 50% of
on-site installation time. Moreover, due to its back-to-back
installation scheme, the small footprint makes the system
especially efficient for large ESS plants. The liquid-cooled
technology also ensures a longer battery life as it offers an
intelligent temperature control system, enabling a maximum battery
temperature difference of up to two and a half degrees Celsius. All
the above elements, provides optimized CAPEX and OPEX costs,
leading to a successful and sustainable in every aspect
project.
Sungrow's ESS Director Europe, Dr. James Li, said: "Sungrow is delighted to
begin this new project together with ENGIE and to deliver our first
BESS project in Belgium - one of
the first storage projects of this size in mainland Europe. Energy storage is at the very
forefront of enabling a secure and clean energy transition, and we
at Sungrow are supporting a better, cleaner future for all and
remain eager to build the bridge to a sustainable future together
with our partners."
The PowerTitan ESS series, having achived remarkable shipments
in 2023 of over 10,5GWh worldwide, supporting the adoption of
utility-scale storage systems across the energy industry. With a
full range of innovative energy storage solutions and zero security
incidents, Sungrow is on the path to becoming the world-leader in
supply of ESS equipment and integrated system solutions.
