GS Yuasa to showcase world’s first containerised dual-chemical energy storage system technology at Data Centre World
G
S Yuasa Battery Sales UK Ltd will be showcasing its innovative dual-chemical energy storage solution at this year’s Data Centre World at ExCel, London on 11 and 12 March. The containerised solution combines GS Yuasa’s industry-leading lead acid and Lithium-ion battery technology to feed a power conversion system. Both unique and self-contained, the system is designed to be easily integrated into any renewable energy micro-grid configuration. The ground-breaking energy storage solution
has been constructed and installed at GS Yuasa’s battery manufacturing facility in Ebbw Vale, South Wales. The pioneering unit can store and control the release of locally generated renewa-
ble energy back into the grid. A scale model of the container will take centre stage on the GS Yuasa stand alongside a smaller dual-chemical battery system. Despite being only the size of a filing cabinet, the smaller system provides 300kW of power and is designed to be a convenient alternative to VRLA powered UPS systems for data centre and other critical standby power applications. The battery manufacturer’s Yu-Power battery monitoring system will also be on display. GS Yuasa • 01793 833555 www.gs-yuasa.com
Schneider Electric equips new short-depth Smart-UPS with lithium-ion batteries chneider Electric has announced the availability of 230V models of its short-depth APC Smart-UPS line, equipping the range with lithium-ion battery packs to ensure that critical equipment remains online even in the event of a power outage. The 230V models with lithium-ion were

specifically designed for the European market, as they are compact enough to deal with the limited space available and can handle mixed-use areas for IT systems. Schneider also notes that they are easy to install, access and maintain, while offering an economic solution for edge computing applications and other installations inside and outside
purpose-designed IT environments. According to Schneider, the new APC Smart-UPS line interactive models are able to deliver increased battery life for lower total cost of option. That’s thanks to the lithium-ion battery pack, which the company says offers savings of up to 50% when compared with UPSs that utilise traditional VRLA batteries. As expected from most modern Schneider products, the new UPSs also come cloud-enabled. This means users can remotely monitor their UPS or gracefully shut them down using PowerChute Business Edition.
