Course overview

Battery energy storage systems, or BESS, are integral components of modern energy infrastructure, enabling efficient management and use of electrical energy across numerous applications. Designing and integrating these systems requires extensive knowledge and planning, considering critical parameters such as capacity, power ratings, efficiency considerations, sizing methodologies, system configurations, and safety protocols. Design of a BESS directly impacts its performance, safety, cost, and ability to support broader energy goals. This course explains and demonstrates key principles of BESS design, including efficiency optimization, scalability, cost-effectiveness, integration with renewable energy sources, and safety protocols. This course is part of the Battery Energy Storage Systems training series.
