Comsys DES™ solutions are high quality battery energy storage systems for a wide variety of applications within renewable energy (utilities), industry, grid stability and EV charging. In addition, they are an ideal add-on to existing ADF installations for creating new, automatic revenue streams for your business.
Comsys Dynamic Energy Storage (DES) systems are intended for integration in low and medium voltage networks, and are highly modular by design, so you can easily scale up as needed. Every system is delivered fully assembled and pre-tested directly from our factory to your site, making installation and startup as quick and easy as possible. In addition to the batteries, each unit contains all necessary inverter, transformer, cooling, control and AC connectivity systems, so no on-site assembly is required. Just place the unit and connect it to the high or low voltage as intended. For large installations, inverter units and batteries may be delivered in separate buildings.
Designed to meet the rapidly growing demands and evolving challenges for intelligent powering of our planet, Comsys DES solutions feature high-speed connectivity for continuous monitoring and analytics, enabling a high degree of digital integration. This makes our solution very easy to integrate with both new and existing systems, regardless of whether the units are for retrofitting electrical power plants or used in large industrial processes.
Comsys AB has delivered a novel, 1MW/250KWh battery energy storage system to a hydroelectric power plant operated by Fortum.
Utility-scale solar and wind farms, as well as hydroelectric plants require solutions that can help perform everything from Capacity firming and Frequency regulation to Peak shaving and Load leveling. This makes them ideal applications for Comsys DES. Another is hybrid power generation combining multiple renewables and energy storage to secure stable power delivery. Turning conventional power plants into energy storage facilities with DES is yet another excellent opportunity for utilities.
These battery storage systems are well suited to handle nearly any industrial application, from smaller industries such as sawmills, to heavy industrial loads. Here Comsys DES units can serve as key components in power quality solutions designed to provide dynamic reactive compensation, flicker mitigation, and harmonic suppression in applications such as electric arc furnaces (EAFs), cranes, hoists and more.
Comsys DES is also ideal for supporting the growing need to charge electrical vehicles, whether as part of the urban environment and charging infrastructure, at industrial sites or for handling large commercial and transportation fleets.
With an investment in Comsys DES, industries of virtually any size can now take advantage of opportunities to automatically get paid for your surplus power that can support the grid, e.g. through national FCR and FFR initiatives. The need for these types of ancillary services is on the rise as more renewables are being used and the demand for EV charging continues to grow at a rapid pace. This can lead to faster payback for your investment in DES and bring extra revenue to your business for a long time to come. Even already installed ADF units from Comsys can be fitted with a DES battery system to convert your existing power quality unit into a new revenue stream.
