Sungrow announced the supply of its liquid-cooled BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems) solution, the PowerTitan, for the 800MWh Vilvoorde BESS project in Belgium. The project will be developed by ENGIE, an international utility group who is a global reference in low-carbon energy and services. The system will be one of the largest ever installed in Europe with a power capacity of 200MW/800MWh and is the first BESS project Sungrow will supply in Belgium.

Set for a grid connection in 2025 this project will deliver power to up to 96.000 households. Sungrow will supply 320 units of its cutting-edge liquid-cooled energy storage system PowerTitan for the ENGIE BESS project in Vilvoorde. The PowerTitan is an efficient, safe, and innovative storage solution that supports ENGIE to deliver energy.

Due to the compact design and the pre-assembled delivery, the PowerTitan saves 50% of on-site installation time. Moreover, due to its back-to-back installation scheme, the small footprint makes the system especially efficient for large ESS plants. The liquid-cooled technology also ensures a longer battery life as it offers an intelligent temperature control system, enabling a maximum battery temperature difference of up to two and a half degrees Celsius.

All the above elements, provides optimized CAPEX and OPEX costs, leading to a successful and sustainable in every aspect project. The PowerTitan ESS series, having achived remarkable shipments in 2023 of over 10,5GWh worldwide, supporting the adoption of utility-scale storage systems across the energy industry. With a full range of innovative energy storage solutions and zero security incidents, Sungrow is on the path to becoming the world-leader in supply of ESS equipment and integrated system solutions.
