SkelGrid 2.0 is an innovative energy storage system designed by Skeleton to meet diverse needs. This technical post delves into its core components, highlighting the user-friendly design, robust safety mechanisms, and advanced monitoring capabilities. A closer look at two technical features—master controller and modular switchgear—reveals their significant roles in the system’s functionality.
Ease of maintenance is a key feature of SkelGrid 2.0, designed with a user-friendly approach to ensure reliability and longevity. Its plug-and-play design eliminates the need for software installation or configuration. Upon integration, the energy storage modules are automatically detected and configured by the master controller, streamlining the setup process.
Maintenance is further simplified through the use of State of Health (SOH) monitoring, which provides estimations on the current degradation and remaining life of the modules. This functionality is crucial for planning preventive maintenance, allowing for timely interventions that extend the system’s operational lifespan, as all energy storage technologies lose performance over time. SOH-based balancing utilizes algorithms to equalize module aging. This approach ensures that all modules operate efficiently and reduces the likelihood of premature wear, contributing to the system’s overall reliability and performance.
The system meets IEC overvoltage category (OVC) III, enhancing its ability to withstand voltage spikes and surges originating from the grid. This feature not only protects the system but also contributes to its stable performance under varying electrical conditions.
The supercapacitor modules are the cornerstone of the SkelGrid system, engineered for unparalleled capacity and power output. These modules distinguish themselves from previous generations by offering a +77% increase in energy density and power output, setting a new industry standard for footprint optimization and performance.
