Hybrid ESS to revolutionise grid stability and power delivery

VINATech has announced the advancement of its energy storage system (ESS) technology with the release of a new hybrid model. This system is designed to supply rapid energy release from its supercapacitors, allowing seamless integration with external Li-Ion battery systems to meet sudden energy demands. This combined approach significantly enhances power stability and safety for modern energy grids.

The development of this hybrid ESS builds upon a long-standing collaboration with KEPCO (Korea Electric Power Corporation), a partnership that has driven innovation in energy storage since 2010. This collaboration culminated in 2022 with the successful installation of the world's largest MW-class high-capacity supercapacitor Hybrid ESS at the Gochang Electric Power Test Centre in Korea.

This groundbreaking system is now poised to meet critical energy challenges beyond Korea. Through a strategic collaboration with Lumcloon Energy, the same hybrid ESS technology will be deployed to support a local power grid stabilisation project in Ireland. This marks a significant step in providing reliable and safe energy solutions to global partners.

The company's hybrid ESS leverages the unique strengths of its supercapacitors:

• Supercapacitors provide instant power bursts for frequency regulation and voltage support, crucial for stabilising grids under fluctuating loads.
• The system is designed to complement the sustained, high-capacity energy supply delivered by partner lithium-ion battery systems.

This synergy enables the hybrid ESS to offer an unparalleled level of efficiency, reliability, and safety, making it an ideal solution for a variety of applications, including renewable energy integration, grid stabilisation, and industrial power management.
