Lingtech Launches 162kWh/50kW Air-Cooled BESS – Reliable, Efficient Energy Storage for Power-Unstable Regions

SHENZHEN, China – March 2022 – Lingtech, the world’s leading manufacturer of energy storage systems, has launched its new 162kWh/50kW air-cooled battery energy storage system (BESS). Combining higher efficiency, lower losses, a built-in inverter, an integrated fire extinguisher, and ultra-stable performance, this system is purpose-built as a cost-effective energy solution for regions plagued by frequent power outages.

Core Technology Advantages: Efficient, Safe, and Stable

Unlike conventional large-scale storage solutions on the market, Lingtech’s 162kWh/50kW BESS focuses on small-to-medium commercial, industrial, and public utility applications, delivering multiple technological breakthroughs:

1. Dual-Mode Operation for Maximum Flexibility

The system supports both Grid Following and Grid Forming operating modes. When the utility grid is stable, the system follows grid frequency for charging and discharging dispatch. During grid outages or in remote off-grid areas, the system automatically switches to Grid Forming mode, establishing its own voltage and frequency reference to independently support microgrid operations.

2. Air-Cooled Thermal Management – Balancing Performance and Economy

Adopting a forced air-cooling thermal solution, the system operates reliably across ambient temperatures from -20°C to 50°C. Compared to liquid-cooled alternatives, the air-cooled design offers lower initial capital investment and reduced maintenance costs for small-to-medium power scenarios, while still ensuring stable output from core components.

3. Comprehensive Safety Protection

The system features an integrated fire suppression system paired with an intelligent Battery Management System (BMS) that continuously monitors voltage, current, and temperature of every individual cell in real time, effectively extending battery cycle life. The complete system incorporates robust electrical protection and fire-suppression coordination mechanisms, ensuring safe and reliable operation even in harsh environments characterized by high temperatures, high humidity, or heavy dust.

4. Built-In Inverter – True Plug-and-Play

With a pre-installed built-in inverter, the system eliminates the need for additional external PCS equipment, significantly simplifying on-site installation and commissioning. Users simply connect solar PV arrays, the utility grid, or diesel generators and the system is ready to operate – delivering genuine plug-and-play convenience.

Multi-Source Hybridization – 24/7 Power Assurance

Lingtech’s 162kWh/50kW BESS supports simultaneous connection to solar PV, the utility grid, and diesel generators. In areas with frequent grid outages, the system intelligently coordinates battery dispatch with diesel generator deployment, prioritizing solar generation to minimize diesel consumption and reduce electricity costs. Even in completely off-grid remote regions, the system can be paired with PV to deliver independent off-grid power supply.

Perfectly Matched to Market Demand – Popular Across Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and South America

Since its launch, the product has gained widespread recognition across Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and South America – regions characterized by unstable grids but abundant sunshine. With moderate capacity, a compact footprint, and flexible deployment, the system is particularly well-suited for the following applications:

• Industrial Manufacturing: Steel mills, rice mills, quarries, and mines – preventing costly production interruptions and raw material losses caused by grid instability.

• Public Infrastructure: Water treatment plants, schools, libraries, and government buildings – ensuring essential public services and government functions operate without disruption.

• Commercial Applications: Parking garages, shopping centers, and small-to-medium factories – leveraging peak shaving and time-of-use arbitrage to significantly reduce daily electricity expenses.

• Any Facility Requiring Uninterrupted Power: From healthcare facilities to telecommunications base stations, the system delivers reliable backup power for all mission-critical loads.
