Climate change and the limited availability of fossil fuel energy sources make changing over to renewable energy sources unavoidable across the globe. However, for the switch to renewables to be successful, power systems must become more flexible so that system and supply reliability is maintained.
Mobile and stationary energy storage solutions and battery storage units increase energy supply flexibility by de-coupling energy production from its consumption and by stabilizing the network frequency.
DC contactors by Schaltbau are packed with expertise. With excellent isolation parameters they ensure a safe disconnection of the battery unit from the inverter in these storage systems. They contribute to overall efficiency of the energy transfer to and from the battery, as they offer very low contact resistance that helps to minimize the heat dissipation: to transfer the energy and not to lose it.
