Industrial Large-Scale Storage

Introduction

Battery storage for the Living Lab Energy Campus (LLEC)

A special design of the battery systems offers the Jülich Research Center the possibility to use the battery storage for various applications simultaneously. This flexible approach was a basic requirement for the project and the integration into the Living Lab Energy Campus (LLEC).

Project details

Two battery storage systems for various applications

As part of this project, two battery storage systems were built on the premises of the Jülich Research Center.

Battery Storage I

With the help of this battery storage system, the Jülich Research Center is carrying out operational optimizations at the Living Lab Energy Campus (LLEC). In this context, the system was integrated into the medium-voltage grid of the client in order to balance renewable generation and consumption on a minute-to-hour basis. At the same time, it is used as a test platform for various grid applications.

Battery Storage II

The second battery storage system is described with a dual-use concept. On the one hand, the system is used for the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) of a building. On the other hand, it provides short-term power for the upstream research network and is thus used for operational optimization.
