How does a Bess work?

A BESS is typically comprised of battery cells arranged into modules. These modules are connected into strings to achieve the desired DC voltage. The strings are often described as racks where the modules are installed. The collected DC outputs from the racks are routed into a 4-quadrant inverter called a Power Conversions System (PCS).

Which Nordic countries are deploying Bess batteries in 2024?

BESS deployments in the Nordics. Source: LCP Delta STOREtrack. Sweden, however, has both a more developed residential storage sector and a bigger pipeline of grid-scale batteries than the rest of the Nordic countries put together, with around 400MW announced for operations in 2024 alone.

How do I integrate a Bess with a microgrid?

Integrating a BESS within the context of a microgrid with respect to the electrical utility is often like interconnecting other DER, such as generators and PV solar farms. The PCS used for the BESS will need to comply with the same standards as solar PV inverters (such as IEEE-1547-2018).

How long does a Bess project take?

Most BESS projects in the pipeline in Sweden are 1-hour systems, with the business case still very much centred around ancillary service markets. Upstream battery projects in Sweden and Norway.
