Located in the city of Barranquilla in northern Colombia, this project will consist of a 45 MWh lithium-ion battery energy storage system and is expected to reach commercial operation by June 2023.
[pdf] The 5MWh liquid-cooling energy storage system comprises cells, BMS, a 20’GP container, thermal management system, firefighting system, bus unit, power distribution unit, wiring harness, and more.
[pdf] The BMS is the brain of the battery pack in a BESS, responsible for monitoring and protecting individual cells to prevent damage and extend lifespan. It measures critical parameters such as voltage, current, and temperature, while calculating the State of Charge (SOC) and State of Health (SOH).
