Since March 26, 2021, a large-scale energy storage system with a
capacity of 1.25 megawatts and 1.3 megawatt-hours has been
operational for Rhiienergie AG in Graubünden, Switzerland. The
7.5-meter-long container is located directly in front of the Vial
substation in Domat/Ems. Rhiienergie is considered a pioneer in the
field of decentralized energy future and smart grid. In June 2023,
it once again won the coveted Energiewende Award EWS. Its
investment in the ADS-TEC Energy large battery has more than paid
off and, based on other customer experiences, is likely to continue
operating for many more years.
Through close collaboration between Rhiienergie and ADS-TEC
Energy, the facility was integrated into Rhiienergie's automated
management systems and passed operational tests right from the
outset. It provides grid ancillary services to the national grid
provider, Swissgrid, and stabilizes local grids. When required, it
manages load peaks, relieving the grid and resulting in more
efficient utilization. This also delivers savings in grid usage
costs, which Rhiienergie passes on to its customers. Additional
revenue is generated through system services.
Christian Capaul, Managing Director of Rhiienergie AG: “The
battery performance is excellent. The system operates reliably and
plays an increasingly important role as the share of renewables
grows steadily. ADS-TEC Energy has proven to be a dependable
partner, and as a result, we are planning to work with them to
expand our storage capacity on a significantly larger scale.”
Thomas Speidel, CEO of ADS-TEC Energy: “We are delighted to
receive such positive feedback from our customer, it is a valuable
validation for us. With our "Everything from a single source" and
"Made in Germany" strategy, our systems maintain our operational
capability over an extended period of time as we commit to being a
reliable partner for the future.”
ADS-TEC Energy possesses an exceptional level of in-house
development, enabling operational support at all levels. This
enhances long-term system availability and provides customers with
greater future security. Digital twins are created for the entire
system down to the cell level and each storage unit is monitored by
ADS-TEC Energy through a secure connection to detect critical
system conditions in a timely manner. This ensures reliable system
operation throughout its entire lifecycle.
