  • Hungary's initial "city-owned clever grid project" will certainly be powered by a 1.3 MWp PV center and sustained by a 1.2 MW lithium-ion battery power storage system with an ability of 2.4 MWh.

AEG Power Solutions called PV Tech's sis website Energy-Storage. news to introduce its participation in the project and claimed that its Convert SC Flex storage converters have actually been selected for the smart grid, which perseverance sports facilities in the Hungarian city of Békéscsaba with eco-friendly energy.

The battery system, accumulated on 7.61 kWh modules in a fire defense shelf, will be attached to the grid via 2 Convert SC Flex converters with a power ranking of 600kVA each. AEG will certainly also offer 650kVa inverters to connect to the DC result of solar panels.

AEG claimed the storage converters use grid fault discovery as well as islanding along with resynchronisation once the supply is provided by the public grid again. In case of any grid failure, the systems switch over to off-grid operation as well as supply electrical power directly from the solar plant as well as power storage to the sporting activities facilities. Because of this, they will be able to remain to run even in case of a grid power interruption.

Andreas Becker, head of grid and also storage at AEG Power Solutions, said the project represents a "excellent chance" to confirm the "unique off-grid functions" of the Convert SC Flex in the field.

Under growth by local partner INFOWARE, which is additionally providing energy monitoring system (EMS) remedies to the smart grid, it is anticipated the project will certainly be full by the end of 2020.
