Secure and reliable control of your BESS

What is a BESS?

A Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is a smart solution that stores electrical energy for use when it is needed most. This includes periods of peak demand, grid outages, or times when renewable sources like solar and wind are not producing power.

BESS plays a crucial role in modern energy systems by improving reliability, stabilising the power supply, and increasing the efficiency of hybrid microgrids and on-site generation. By intelligently charging and discharging energy, a BESS helps reduce reliance on diesel generators, lower operational costs, and support sustainability targets.

How it works

With the emergence of microgrids, we are seeing an increasing demand for energy storage systems. The technology for BESS is evolving rapidly, including the need for control solutions. The InteliNeo 530 BESS offers safe and reliable control for the battery energy storage system and all it's key parts, and can help optimise costs, decrease noise pollution and reduce emissions.

This robust energy management system enables direct integration of the Battery Management System (BMS) with the Power Conversion System (PCS) within a BESS. Predefined BMS and PCS devices will be stored within the device list to help save time when setting up the Modbus communicatons. In addition, the InteliNeo 530 BESS controls, monitors and protects the auxiliary systems, and has synchronising AC breaker control which helps to easily add the BESS into a new or existing microgrid. Synchronising breaker control, cyber security features, load sharing with other ComAp-controlled assets and interfacing to higher-level controllers are all supported as standard and facilitate an easy addition of the BESS into a new or existing microgrid if needed.

The BESS solution can operate in the following scenarios on-grid:

Maximum Demand Tariff reduction
Demand Response
Emergency Backup Power
