■ system incompleteness and lack of supporting equipment
help build a full-fledged battery storage system that anticipates consumer expectations. For all that, a custom product is not a silver bullet. Making a custom BESS should be considered on a case-by- case basis and for some projects, a turnkey solution would work best. To learn more about tailor-made versus
off-the-shelf BESSs, read a larger article about battery energy storage systems on the Integra Sources LLC blog page. Here, readers can also learn about various battery technologies and characteristics, major BESS manufacturers, alternative energy storage systems, and other related details.
■ low-quality software
■ absence of warranty and post-warranty maintenance Building a battery energy storage system can be a tedious process that takes time, money, and expertise. But this gives an opportunity to create a highly customized solution that fully meets all the requirements of an end-user. A bespoke BESS can offer improved functionality, usability, safety, and cybersecurity. Implementing advanced BMS algorithms will allow users to enhance the performance of the battery and extend its lifetime. Developing a custom solution optimizes technical support, customer care, and other services that may be needed as either an end-user or a BESS provider.
To design a high-quality BESS requires a team of
professionals well-versed in battery technologies, power electronics, embedded software, and hardware development. It’s essential to organize and harmonize each stage of creating the product from design to certification and manufacturing. Hiring engineers with relevant expertise and experience can
