"Revolutionary" QuantumHE: Wärtsilä's Fire-Safe Energy Storage

• Experience the latest advancements in energy storage with Wärtsilä's QuantumHE system. Enjoy up to 9% more usable energy, advanced safety features, and grid support services with GEMS Digital Energy Management Platform.

Wärtsilä has launched Quantum High Energy (QuantumHE), an energy storage system with advanced safety features. QuantumHE utilizes high-energy density battery cells (306Ah), active dehumidification, pre-fabricated firewalls, external door latches, gas detection ports and centrally located dual-sprinklers with leakage protection for coolants, electrolytes and GWP refrigerants. QuantumHE also increases the usable energy during the lifecycle by up to 9%, reducing land requirements, equipment costs and expediting the development process. It is also compatible with Wärtilä's GEMS Digital Energy Management Platform, providing advanced grid support services and predictive battery analytics.
