JinkoSolar has announced that it has supplied liquid cooled energy storage systems for a 6MW/6MWh project in Guangdong province’s Taishan City.
The project owner’s choice was significantly based on safety, efficiency and cell life, with liquid-cooled systems in which coolant flows through a liquid cooling plate integrated inside the battery system to reduce battery temperature, improve consistency and reduce the risk of thermal runaway preferred to both air-cooled and conventional liquid-cooled ESS alternatives. JinkoSolar’s SunTera features the industry’s lowest temperature differential within 2.5 Celsius degrees and, as a result, ensures that the battery operates at a comfortable temperature, extending its life by up to 20%.
