The Group’s state of the art technology for grid-connected
storage systems, is the first technology to be certified with the
latest standards CEI 0-16 Annex N-bis, and offers to grid operators
and utilities a unique regulatory advantage
Regulatory News:
Electro Power Systems S.A. (“EPS” or the “Group”,
listed on Euronext Paris EPS:PA) (Paris:EPS), technology pioneer of
clean energy storage systems, has announced today to the
international technical community in Japan that the grid connection
and power conversion technologies for hybrid storage systems of the
Group have been certified according to the latest CEI standards.
The certification, that covers the major electrochemical storage
technologies, in all configurations, has been obtained by its
subsidiary Elvi Energy upon completion of an extensive systems
testing and evaluation at the accredited laboratories of CREI
Ven.
The international announcement has been done today by Gabriele
Marchegiani, Senior Vice President of the Group, from the TC120
meeting of the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) in Osaka (Japan).
The forum, where Gabriele Marchegiani has been invited as
internationally recognized expert and delegate of the CEI (Comitato
Elettrotecnico Italiano), focuses on standardization in the field
of Electrical Energy Storage (EES) systems that, in line with the
Group’s commitment on hybrid solutions (HyESS), will cover the full
range of storage technologies, including electrochemical and
hydrogen storage solutions.
Compulsory since January 2016, annex N-bis of the CEI 0-16
standard outlines the minimum grid services required for the
connection of any storage system to the Italian medium-voltage
grid, but is also setting one of the most stringent requirement for
grid connected energy storage systems internationally.
“Electro Power Systems is the first player on the market to
enroll in ANIE's register according to the new CEI standard, a
unique comprehensive regulation scheme for ancillary services
carried out by grid-connected energy storage systems globally. This
certification, which spans all major electrochemical storage
technologies in line with the Group focus on hybrid storage
solutions, not only attests to our commitment to excellence and
continuous improvement, but also implies for grid operators and
utilities a necessary one-stop-shop for energy storage in Italy,
with the most complete and advanced solutions available on the
market today”. – said today Gabriele Marchegiani, Senior Vice
President of the Group.
“We are very pleased of this certification – said Carlalberto
Guglielminotti, Chief Executive Officer of Electro Power Systems
Group. – “because it was an essential step to enhance our
technology leading position. While innovation remains our emphasis,
we want to ensure that every system we install meets and exceeds
our customers' expectations, both for Hybrid Power Plants and
stand-alone energy storage systems generally”.
Elvi Energy, the Group’s subsidiary and division dedicated to
system integration, performed the extensive testing of the grid
connection and power conversion technologies for hybrid storage
systems of the Group, passing the independent evaluation of Kiwa
Cermet Italia, one of the major internationally recognized
certification bodies.
