Scalable system provides efficient, flexible,
and intelligent solution for commercial and industrial
users
ORLANDO,
Fla., June 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeywell
today announced Honeywell Ionic™, a compact,
end-to-end modular battery energy storage system (BESS) and energy
management tool that offers improved energy density compared
to what's currently available on the market, while delivering a
significant reduction of installations costs.
Installed with lithium-ion battery cells, the design emphasizes
flexibility and futureproofing. Honeywell Ionic includes
Honeywell's Experion® Energy Control System and a
chemistry-agnostic Battery Management System (BMS). Experion
helps users to manage and optimize energy use by improving uptime,
enabling peak shaving and providing the ability to create a Virtual
Power Plant. The BMS provides insight into performance at the cell
level, and is configurable with advances in battery chemistry,
insulating the end user from future supply-chain risks.
Due to its structural design and compact dimensions, the modular
architecture provides a solution that can be deployed with a
standard forklift and simpler site preparation – which
significantly reduces installation costs. The modular design also
provides higher energy storage per square foot, scalable from
approximately 700 kilowatt hours (kWh) to 300 megawatt hours (MWh)
of energy capacity in a standard configuration and lasting up to
two hours at maximum rate of discharge. This solution provides
customers a lower installed cost per kilowatt hour. The modular
approach allows customers to incrementally add storage capacity at
their own pace, not having to invest in more capacity than
needed.
Honeywell Ionic BESS also offers a sophisticated set of safety
capabilities, including three layers of the latest generation BMSt
Systems (BMS) ensuring battery health and system safety.
Additionally, it can be configured with Li-Ion Tamer, which further improves the safety
of Li-ion batteries, sensing thermal runaway before it occurs.
"Honeywell Ionic is designed to be an efficient and versatile
component of customers' energy transition," said Chad Briggs, vice president and general manager
of Projects and Automation Solutions at Honeywell Process
Solutions. "Honeywell is developing battery energy storage
solutions that help companies maximize their renewable energy
resources and achieve their corporate sustainability goals."
Honeywell Ionic is a single, complete solution for
commercial and industrial customers as well as independent power
producers who are looking to optimize energy costs, store back-up
power, and reduce their carbon footprint. It's also applicable for
front-of-meter users who are seeking to simplify the installation
process and reduce installation costs.
Features of Honeywell Ionic include:
- Scalable and flexible ~700kWh building block for a
forklift-able installation, significantly reducing the cost and
time of installation
- Battery module is designed to accommodate cells from multiple
battery suppliers
- Battery management system supports all battery types and
chemistries, helping futureproof the core architecture of the
system and facilitating system augmentation
- Liquid cooling to help equalize battery temperatures through
charge and discharge cycles, prolonging battery life
- 1500VDC battery stack to maximize power conversion
efficiency
- DC augmentation support
Honeywell Ionic will add to Honeywell's current containerized
solutions (the 20-foot and 40-foot containerized BESS). For more
