Dynapower, part of Sensata Technologies, a global leader in energy storage solutions, has officially announced the launch of its latest utility-scale product called the MV Integrated PowerSkid™.
According to certain reports, the stated product arrives on the scene bearing an ability to combine highly efficient three-level CPS-2500 converters, Dynapower’s 5th generation of MW-scale inverters, with a medium-voltage step-up transformer. This it does to eventually offer a compact and cutting-edge solution for medium-voltage applications throughout the renewable, BESS, and hydrogen sectors.
More on the same would reveal how MV Integrated PowerSkid™ is actually designed to facilitate ease of installation and quick commissioning. Here, the technology will effectively leverage a single galvanized steel platform containerized within a 20’ ISO high cube to streamline the integration process. Thanks to an incorporated medium-voltage transformer, the solution also ensures maximum uptime, while simultaneously simplifying package design.
“With its streamlined, easy-to-install design, the MV Integrated PowerSkid™ sets a standard for medium-voltage applications in the energy industry,” said Tim Varhue, Director of Research and Development at Dynapower. “We’re excited to provide our customers with a solution that delivers exceptional value and performance.”
Talk about the whole value proposition on a slightly deeper level, we begin from the promise of easy integration. You see, by banking upon standard, pre-assembled, and pre-tested systems, the overarching innovation treads up a long distance to ensure quick installation, and at the same time, cut down on both cost and timeline risks.
Next up, there is a compact design coming into play, as ISO container-sized single unit should come in handy to effectively minimize footprint and shipping requirements.
Almost like an extension of that is would be the flexibility in this very design. MV PowerSkid’s standard design, for better understanding, packs together two parallel CPS-2500 inverters, flexible transformer power, and voltage ratings to conceive a wide range of power outputs.
Among other things, we must mention how Dynapower also brings forth a DC-ready PowerSkid™ design which, on its part, incorporates multiple DC-DC converters within a pre-assembled, pre-tested solution, featuring the DPS-1000 and DPS-500 DC-DC converters.
We further ought to touch upon MV Integrated PowerSkid™ caters to a range of applications, including data centers, large-scale utility and C&I BESS projects, non-LFP BESS solutions, high-voltage electrolysis (e.g., PEM electrolysis), as well as large-scale stationary fuel cell plants.
Rounding up highlights would be a fact that MV Integrated PowerSkid™ is also decked up with advanced technologies, such as Islanded Operation, Dynamic Transfer™, Black Start, Frequency Compensation Mode, and VAR Compensation Mode, all of them working in synergy to offer unparalleled performance.
Founded in 1963, Dynapower’s rise up the ranks stems from delivering power electronics solutions, along with a host of aftermarket services focused on continuous reliability and efficiency. The company’s excellence in what it does can also be understood once you consider it is a trusted leader in all types of power conversion equipment, including high power rectifiers, inverters, DC/DC converters, integrated battery energy storage systems, and transformers for use in hydrogen, e-mobility, energy storage, industrial, mining, defense, and research applications.
“Our next-generation CPS-2500 converters offer industry-leading power density, efficiency, and hyper-fast response, perfectly suited for data center applications, large-scale storage integration, and power-to-X (P2X) projects such as green hydrogen electrolysis,” said Dr. Chris Dennison, Product Line Manager at Dynapower. “The MV Integrated PowerSkid™ embodies our commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions that address the evolving needs of the energy industry.”
