Younicos is known as a pioneer for intelligent storage and grid solutions based on battery technology from Germany. The Y.Cube now offers a tailor-made energy storage solution with bidirectional fast-response storage applications in mind.
Optimized for system efficiency and for customer needs
The plug-and-play solution consists of two sub-enclosures with an upper section housing up to two 250 kVA Y.Converters, and a lower section housing the battery array with a capacity of up to 880kWh. Further, it accommodates multiple battery technologies so that customers are able to choose the best chemistry for their applications. The building blocks can be installed by forklift as a single enclosure for <500 kW applications, or aggregated to make full multi-megawatt systems. The Y.Cube manages battery rack cooling within more consistent limits, resulting less parasitic losses and slower battery degradation.
Smart software integration for a smart energy storage solution
The core of the system is interoperability around a common set of controls and performance standards which seamlessly integrate with higher-level SCADA systems, coordinating performance across all components of an energy storage solution.
