Enhancing power grid resilience: Delta's LFP battery container selected by Quintain Steel
Text by EISBG 2024/08

Delta recently announced a contract with Quintain Steel to build an 80MW energy storage system solution to participate in the E-dReg frequency regulation reserve service, enhancing the resilience of Taiwan's power grid. The project will deploy 24 liquid-cooled 3.4MW power conditioning systems (PCS3000) designed for island climates, along with Delta's next-generation LFP containerized battery system. Additionally, it will incorporate the DeltaGrid® energy management system, which uses AI technology for intelligent operation and maintenance and has already been implemented in hundreds of sites across Taiwan.

The next-generation LFP containerized battery system is tailored for MW-level solar-plus-storage, ancillary services, and microgrid projects. The battery container, housed in a standard 10ft container, compliant with both marine and land transportation regulations and incorporates features like streamlines installation with its positioning tolerance space and closed-cabinet wiring design to shorten installation timelines. Safety features include the adopting of LFP cells, comprehensive monitoring of each cell, redundant sensors, fire-resistant materials, and built-in sprinkler system. Eton Lee, General Manager of Delta's Energy Infrastructure & Industrial Solutions Business Group, remarked, "Delta is honored that its refined energy storage system solutions have been chosen by Quintain Steel. The project adopts Delta's next-generation LFP containerized battery system, offering rapid installation, multiple safety protections, and redundant communication control, helping Quintain Steel optimize construction and long-term maintenance costs while effectively managing potential risks."The next-generation LFP containerized battery system is tailored for MW-level solar-plus-storage, ancillary services, and microgrid projects.

Chairman Stanley C.T. Wang of Quintain Steel remarked, "As Taiwan is facing energy transformation, we are actively advancing ESG and corporate social responsibility initiatives. Currently, we have installed an 8.6MW solar power generation system at our factory. Our next step involves establishing an energy storage system to assist Taipower in fortifying the power grid and enhancing power quality. I extend my gratitude to Delta for their consistent technical support over the past two years. The project has undergone review by Taipower and received approval from competent authorities and local government, aligning with standards set forth by the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the Bureau of Standards, Metrology and Inspection, and the National Fire Agency of the Ministry of the Interior. The site, equipped with firewalls, firewater reservoirs, and isolation green belts, is located at a distance ten times further than the average distance regulated by law from nearby residential areas, hospitals, and gas stations."

Quintain Steel is expected to complete system construction by the fourth quarter of 2025 and integrate into Taipower's Energy Trading Platform. It aims to provide E-dReg frequency regulation reserve services, which are anticipated to significantly enhance grid resilience and improve the stability of Southern Taiwan's power system.
