Rimac Energy's first 'SineStack' BESS ready for deployment in UK

Rimac Energy, a division in Rimac Technology that is renowned for its high-performance automotive technologies, has announced that its first 'SineStack' battery energy storage system (BESS) is commissioned and ready for commercial deployment to a site in Colchester, UK. 

The brand, known for its high-spec electric supercars, expanded its technology portfolio to include battery energy storage solutions, with a pilot production line established in its Jankomir facility on the outskirts of the Croatian capital Zagreb, followed by a new BESS manufacturing facility in Oxfordshire, UK.

Rimac's first BESS product 'SineStack' incorporates game-changing power conversion technology that is highly integrated both physically and functionally with its battery cells, according to the company. The products will enter commercial market in European markets next year. 

Utilizing this innovative architecture, along with adaptive software, allows sophisticated multi-scale models to calculate the unique internal parameters of every cell and dynamically adjust power conversion operations to maximize energy extraction, optimally balance temperatures, and enhance lifetime.

"I'm exceptionally proud to bring SineStack to market following extensive development and testing. In keeping with our Rimac DNA, our product takes a monumental technological leap forward, enabling unparalleled levels of integration, capability and performance. I'm very much looking forward to scaling up production and deployment of SineStack across Europe", said Wasim Sarwar Dilov, Director of Rimac Energy. 

Rimac claims that 'SineStack' battery storage products will deliver zero energy capacity fade during the first two years of operation, retaining more energy capacity throughout the life of the battery and improving revenue generation potential, while maintaining its class-leading lifetime of 12,000 cycles. 

Further, the system maximizes energy extraction from each module, whether used individually or in combination with others. By dynamically adjusting to the unique characteristics of each cell, it allows for seamless updates and continuous improvements, keeping it at the forefront of energy storage technology.
