The Energy Storage Inspection 2023 analyzed and compared the energy efficiency of 18 battery systems. With an average inverter efficiency in discharge mode of 97.8 % and a settling time of less than 0.2 s, new records were set. In the reference case up to 5 kW the hybrid inverters F1 and C1 scored best with an SPI (5 kW) of 92.6 %.
For the sixth time in a row all manufacturers of solar energy storage systems for residential buildings were invited to take part in the Energy Storage Inspection 2023. 11 manufactures participated in the comparison of the storage systems with measurement data of 18 systems. Two manufacturers decided to participate anonymously.
Implementing a comprehensive quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) program during the pre-manufacturing and manufacturing phases is essential to the long-term success of solar projects, as it ensures that their main components meet the required quality standards to ensure long-term performance
Laboratory tests were conducted by independent testing institutes in accordance with the "Efficiency Guideline for PV Storage Systems” (version 2.0). To each analyzed system a system abbreviation (e.g. A1) was assigned. The batteries of the AC-coupled systems A1 to B2 are equipped with battery inverters.
In integration factories, energy storage systems are built with many moving parts, a fact reflected by the large number of CEA findings on system enclosures – amounting to 45% of the total system-level findings (see chart to the left).
Enclosure inspection comprises visual inspection of appearance, strength and rigidity, wiring and cabling, grounding mechanism, and ingress performance. The supporting components and system that form the BOP for a BESS consists of a fire detection and suppression system, a power distribution set-up and a thermal management system.
