Energy storage systems

There are various types of batteries. For professional usage Lithium-ion batteries have become the standard. This generation batteries does not suffer from a memory effect and have a very high energy density.

In contrast to what is commonly thought, battery packets are very compact and have an enormous battery life, which can be best described in charge cycles. The current batteries are capable of completely charging and discharging up to 8,000 times. The exact numbers depends on different factors, such as charge cycle, charge speed, discharge depth and battery temperature.

We equip machines with batteries, but we have also developed a robust multifunctional battery container. This container operates as a central energy buffer and can drive multiple machines (simultaneously). As a result, the total battery capacity drops and with that, the investment cost of electrification drops subsequently.

Properties of the energy storage systems

  • Up to 8000 charge cyles
  • High energy density, which makes them relatively lightweight and compact
  • Modular and scalable
  • Robust; can withstand vibrations and shocks

Weight

One of the major benefits of Lithium-ion batteries is its low weight. Compared to lead-acid batteries, they are about 70% lighter.

Dimensions

Lithium-ion batteries are significantly more compact than more traditional batteries. The dimensions can also vary up to 70%. 

Efficiency

A lithium-ion battery has an efficiency of approximately 95% on a full charge/discharge cycle. A major difference with lead-acid batteries is that lithium-ion batteries can discharge up to 90%, whereas lead-acid batteries can only discharge up to 50%. This means we can get by with just over half of your lead-acid battery set, while a lithium-ion battery is also charges faster.
