Sungrow Delivery Success Story: From Grid Energization to Commercial Operation in Just Two Weeks: Bramley 331MWh BESS Project Sets a New Record in the UK

In the UK, the time from grid energization to commercial operation for an energy storage project typically takes several months due to factors like commissioning, compliance testing, and final regulatory approvals, with significant delays potentially arising from grid connection backlogs.

The impressive record of two weeks was set due to a number of factors, relevant to the innovative design of the PowerTitan 2.0, but also a dedicated and highly efficient team of experts. Let's explore Sungrow's delivery efficiency story.

AC-DC Block Design: Streamlining On-site Installation

The all-in-one AC-DC block design of Sungrow's energy storage system PowerTitan 2.0, with pre-assembled battery modules and PCS, ensures seamless integration, significantly reducing site installation time.

Conventional systems require separate PCS and battery cabinets for on-site wiring and commissioning. In contrast, AC-DC block design completes pre-installation and pre-commissioning at the factory, simulates diverse grid scenarios to validate PCS performance, and conducts grid adaptability tests under extreme conditions at the factory, slashing commissioning timelines at large.

Comprehensive and Professional Team Assembled

The Bramley 331MWh BESS project is a vital asset of BW ESS. As the project owner, BW ESS has a stringent timeline. Sungrow assembled a professional and multidisciplinary team spanning R&D experts, delivery specialists, and field engineers, ensuring refined management throughout the entire project process.

For the Bramley project, Sungrow not only shortened the grid energization to commercial operation cycle from the industry minimum of 50 working days to just two weeks, but also responded promptly to the testing needs of the project operator and the grid. The team successfully completed and passed all grid ancillary services tests in just one and a half days, significantly reducing testing time and enabling earlier energy trading and grid service benefits for customers.

Backed by 520+ service centers worldwide, Sungrow delivers 24/7 technical support across 180+ countries, ensuring rapid response to client needs.
