A123 Systems has announced a contract to supply a 500kW energy storage solution to Dongfang Electric Corporation (DEC).
Expected to be installed at DEC's manufacturing facility in Hangzhou city, China Zhejiang Province, by the end of 2011, the system is designed as a demonstration project to help DEC evaluate how advanced energy storage can address the challenges associated with the rapid growth of wind power in China. This project will be A123's first energy storage system in China.
A123's Nanophosphate lithium-ion energy storage systems offer customers a solution to improve grid stability and facilitate the integration of renewable energy sources. The scalable design consists of modular energy storage racks, power electronics and communications and controls software, enabling grid operators to implement a turnkey package for frequency regulation, spinning reserve and other ancillary services.
