The ACES project reached the first important Milestone in the project: Pre-Studies, Requirement Analysis and Test Procedures defined. The project team delivered the Requirement Specification for the Adaptive Control System, power quality measurement, battery health sensors and the demonstrator sites at VänerEnergi, Glava Energy Center and Fraunhofer IFF.
The team will focus on demonstrating various battery services such as power quality control, peak shaving, investment deferral and self-consumption of distributed energy resources. A market eco-system is being developed with direct billing capabilities for the offered services.
Adaptive battery control could be applied in several environments such as production industry, multi-apartment buildings, remote recreational sites and EV charging.
Applying a Lean Start-up approach, the team will now focus on delivering the Minimum Viable Product and gain market feedback to plan following iterations to our system. Application of innovative nano sensors for improved battery health monitoring will be tested in coming iterations.
“Being in the position to introduce our NanoPlasmonic Sensing technology in the ACES Project demonstrator is a major step forward for our battery sensor as well as for how it can assist in the energy storage market.”
Patrik Dahlqvist, CEO of Insplorion
One important vehicle for gathering feedback from our customers and market experts is our Reference Group, to be inaugurated during a workshop at the European Utility Week at 14 November in Paris.
Completing Milestone 1 is a big step towards intelligent and affordable battery storage application in the energy system.
See you at our Project and Reference groups meeting on the European Utility Week in Paris!
