This article discusses the next trend in the BESS industry – 587Ah/588Ah cells and 6.25MWh BESS in 20ft container.
For the last two years, the 314Ah LFP prismatic cell has been the trending cell in containerised BESS (Battery Energy Storage System). Cell capacities have been increasing over the years, and with higher capacity, volumetric energy density has improved in a 20ft ISO high cube container. The larger cells reduce components in the container system, lower overall system costs, and reduce project costs, such as lower civil costs and lower land requirements due to higher capacity in a given container.
