Energy storage company Younicos has signed an agreement with strategic partner Panasonic to design and build a solar-plus-storage system in Denver.
The Y-Cube from Younicos consists of two sub-enclosures, one each for the power conversion system and DC battery block. The controls are embedded in the PCS and communicate directly with the battery system, bypassing the need for additional battery-to-PCS communication interfaces. Its optimized configuration translates to fast response time for improved PCS efficiency and enhanced grid-forming capability.
The Y-Cube is available in 250 or 500 kilowatts modular building blocks that can be deployed individually in smaller applications or combined to create multi-megawatt systems. Its compact size allows for easy installation. No on-site crane is needed; installation can be done with a forklift, saving considerable time and money.
