EVLO Energy Storage Inc., a fully owned subsidiary of Canadian utility Hydro-Québec, has made public its 'EVLO Synergy' 5 MWh lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) based battery energy storage system (BESS) in a 20-foot enclosure. The BESS will be officially launched at the renewable industry conference RE+ in Anaheim, California scheduled on September 10 next month.
The product is the latest addition to EVLO's portfolio of battery systems dedicated to the integration of renewable energy, participation to capacity services, and the resiliency of the electrical grid with a versatile duration of 2-4 hours.
The new battery system's high energy density unlocks a highly competitive cost of ownership for large-scale projects at the heart of modern energy infrastructure, according to the manufacturer. Its efficient design reduces land use, construction materials, and project timelines, making it the optimal solution for large-scale projects, it adds.
"This launch is a significant expansion of our portfolio, emphasizing our commitment to advanced, safe, and cost-effective energy solutions that support our customers' requirements for clean energy projects," said Sonia St-Arnaud, president and CEO of EVLO.
"As with all of our solutions, EVLO SYNERGY is supported by EVLO's best-in-class customer experience, which ensures a collaborative partnership throughout a project's entire lifecycle", she added.
The EVLO Synergy is compliant to NFPA 69 standard and is UL 9540 certified for end-to-end fire safety. The company assures up to 9,125 cycles over 25 years without the need for battery replacements for the BESS.
