GE Vernova Launches Advanced Containerized Solution for Battery Enabled Energy Storage (BESS)

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (September 10, 2024) - GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) today announced the launch of its advanced containerized solution for Battery Enabled Energy Storage (BESS) - the RESTORE DC Block - which offers enhanced safety, efficiency, flexibility, and long-term performance. With a capacity of 5MWh and enhanced duration range of 2-8 hours, the solution offers the ability to support multiple grid use cases for utility-scale renewable and energy storage projects.

RESTORE DC Block is a core component of GE Vernova's FLEXRESERVOIR solution - an integrated system combining battery storage, power electronics, and advanced controls - that is designed to support seamless integration of renewable energy sources like solar and wind. By storing surplus energy during periods of high generation and releasing it when demand peaks, it ensures a more reliable and efficient grid.

"Our new RESTORE DC Block is engineered not only to meet the stringent technical requirements of modern grids but also to prioritize safety, quality, delivery, and cost," said Ed Torres, Business Leader, GE Vernova's Solar & Storage Solutions business. "This solution demonstrates our ongoing commitment to driving the energy transition by offering flexible, high-performance storage solutions that enhance renewable energy integration while driving down the Levelized Cost of Storage (LCOS)."

Key features of the RESTORE DC Block include:

Safety First: Equipped with comprehensive fire protection systems, the RESTORE DC Block ensures a high standard of safety. The system is designed to mitigate potential hazards while offering defense against cyber threats, ensuring more secure and reliable operations in all environments.

Advanced Digital Technology: Integrated intelligent thermal management and high-speed edge analytics provide precise monitoring of the system's state-of-charge, state-of-health, and state-of-safety, enhancing operational efficiency and reliability. The system also features zero-touch commissioning for quick, hassle-free deployment.

Performance and Longevity: Powered by liquid-cooled LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) cells, the RESTORE DC Block delivers an industry-leading 93%+ round-trip efficiency (RTE), is capable of executing multiple back-to-back cycles, and is designed to offer consistent performance over a 25-year life. It operates reliably in a broad range of temperatures from -30°C to 50°C, making it suitable for diverse climates and geographies.

Flexible Installation & Augmentation: The system is designed for versatility, supporting back-to-back and side-to-side configurations to optimize space. It also features both AC and DC augmentation options, allowing for customized scalability with a usage-based capacity guarantee.

The RESTORE DC Block can empower utility companies, renewable energy developers, and grid operators by delivering greater grid resilience, reducing energy costs, and optimizing renewable energy integration, thereby accelerating the transition to a dispatchable clean energy future.
