mtu EnergyPack QG

Powering Tomorrow Sustainably. The Ideal Solution for Grid-Scale Storage Projects.

Your grid-scale storage solution

Introducing EnergyPack QG, the ideal battery energy storage system for integrating high shares of renewable energy into the electric power grid. With a storage capacity ranging from 4.47 MWh to over 100 MWh, EnergyPack QG is optimized for front-of-the-meter utility scale projects, as well as large commercial and industrial applications. EnergyPack QG's modular design enables easy scalability, making it an ideal choice for integrating into energy systems of any size.

The system is reliable and prevents unexpected shutdowns due to volatile energy supply or grid congestion caused by high power demand. Store excess energy from renewable sources during production peaks and discharge it during periods of high demand with EnergyPack QG. This maximizes revenue and reduces costs by capitalizing on energy trading opportunities.

Anatomy of an mtu EnergyPack QG

The integration of a high level of solar and wind renewables in power systems can be achieved effectively with the help of the  mtu  EnergyPack QG, which comprises five essential components: battery rack, a power conversion system (PCS), a medium voltage skid, an auxiliary power transformer with sub-distribution cabinet, and the  mtu  EnergetIQ Asset Controller.

Battery rack

Source of energy which can be charged or discharged via electro-chemical reaction. Structured system including lithium-ion cells, cooling, wiring, asset controller and housing.

Power Conversion System (PCS)

Converts the stored energy into the appropriate form for use by the connected load.

MV Transformer & Switchgear

Manages the distribution of energy to the connected load.

Auxiliary Power Transformer with Sub Distribution Cabinet

Provides additional power to support the operation of the EnergyPack QG and distributes power to other components as needed.

Unlimited scalability meets project-specific requirements

The mtu EnergyPack QG is a battery energy storage system that can be scaled infinitely to fulfill specific project needs, rendering it an optimal choice for large-scale grid applications.

Versatile solution for various applications

The QG system is designed to handle demanding applications with its strong and durable industrial design. It can be easily customized to meet your operational needs and can be augmented over time to increase asset value in a cost-effective manner.

Energy Storage

The mtu EnergyPack can store excess energy from various sources for later use, such as peak shaving and load shifting.

Energy Trading

When combined with mtu EnergetIQ, the system can participate in higher-level electricity markets for potential revenue generation in day-ahead trading, real-time or intraday trading, and ancillary services.

Frequency Regulation

The solution supports the grid and maintains an continuous balance between load and generation, stabilizing the frequency of the grid (ancillary services).

Voltage and Reactive Power Regulation

The power electronics in the mtu EnergyPack help regulate the voltage of the grid and manage reactive power circulating in the grid.

Performance Optimization

By combining the above functionalities, the system can integrate large amounts of renewable energy, reduce the cost of conventional energy generation, and provide reliable power in on-grid applications.

Transmission and Distribution Support

The high capacity of grid-scale energy storage solutions can defer or eliminate the need to upgrade grid infrastructure, enabling better management of grid congestion.
