Cummins Expands Power Generation Portfolio with Zero Emissions 200kWh to 2MWh Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
Cummins Inc.'s Power Generation business announced the addition of new Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) solutions to its global product line. Fully integrated BESS containers for AC output, the development of this product represents a significant push towards helping customers reach their sustainability goals, the company said.
“The global shift for renewable energy sources is becoming more profound,” said Lucio Kroll, senior director, new energy solutions, Cummins Power Generation. “We’re proud to expand our offerings to include BESS, staying in line with that shift and serving our customers with safe and reliable solutions that can help them meet their energy transition goals.”
Cummins Power Generation BESS solutions are available in two architectural designs: a 10-foot container (200kWh to 400kWh) and a 20-foot high cube container (600kWh to 2MWh). Product features include lithium ferrophosphate (LFP) batteries for high cycle life, optimal liquid cooling thermal management designed to maximize battery life and functionality, facilitating transportation and installation. This solution will respond to the power needs of industrial, commercial and mission critical markets operating in the 50Hz frequency range.
The three main use cases are off-grid (remote communities, mining sites, and remote industrial uses), energy management (EV charging infrastructure, commercial properties, and universities) and life-saving facilities (data centers, healthcare facilities, wastewater treatment plants).
With more than 100 years of experience, the launch of BESS solutions continues Cummins’ rich history in power generation.
