5.016MWh DC-side platform Integrated AC/DC container options PV, wind and microgrid applications
Application Scenarios

Where these systems are deployed.

From large-scale renewable co-location to remote island microgrids, the platform is configured around the project's grid context, dispatch strategy and site constraints.

01

Renewable Co-location

Battery storage co-located with utility-scale PV or wind to smooth generation, extend dispatch windows and meet grid interconnection requirements.

02

Peak Regulation & Load Shifting

Grid-connected storage for demand peak shaving, tariff arbitrage and ancillary service provision where grid codes permit.

03

Microgrid & Industrial Park

Behind-the-meter or islanded microgrid configurations for industrial parks, campuses and special economic zones requiring reliable, managed power.

04

Remote & Island Power Systems

Diesel displacement and renewable-storage hybrid systems for islands and off-grid communities where grid connection is unavailable or uneconomical.

05

Grid Support Services

Frequency response, voltage support and spinning reserve where local grid codes and offtake agreements define the operating envelope.

06

Multi-Container Expansion

Block architecture allowing phased capacity additions. Each expansion phase requires interface review, site approvals and engineering sign-off.

Interface & Responsibility Risk Matrix

Utility projects fail at interfaces, not only at product selection.

The matrix below maps the critical interface zones where scope gaps and assumption mismatches most often cause schedule and cost overruns. Each zone requires explicit agreement before engineering begins.

Interface Zone Risk if Unresolved Scope Owner
DC voltage & current range PCS underspecification, cell stress MOLETONG + PCS vendor
AC bus & PCS topology Protection coordination failure Project EPC
MV transformer & switchgear Harmonics, insulation mismatch Project EPC / utility
Grid code compliance Interconnection rejection Developer + local utility
Fire suppression & spacing Code non-compliance, permit delay Site EPC + AHJ
Foundation & civil loading Structural failure, warranty void Civil contractor
SCADA / EMS communication Dispatch failure, data loss MOLETONG + system integrator
Commissioning responsibility SAT failure, liability gap Defined in contract

Note: Scope ownership above reflects typical project structures and does not constitute a contractual commitment. Each project requires an explicit interface agreement and scope-of-supply document before engineering commences.

System Architecture

DC-side and AC/DC integrated configurations.

The diagram shows the typical supply boundary for MOLETONG-scope equipment. Balance of plant -- including transformers, MV switchgear, civil works and grid connection -- is project-specific and requires coordination with the EPC and local utility.

Always confirm against the latest model datasheet and project technical agreement before use in engineering, procurement or investment decisions.

Thermal Management & Safety

Manage temperature, detection and protection as one system.

Effective safety in containerized storage is a layered engineering problem, not a single feature. The following describes the system approach; specific capabilities vary by platform and must be confirmed against the applicable model documentation.

Layer 1

Thermal Management

  • Liquid cooling system
  • Cell-level temperature monitoring
  • Thermal runaway containment design
  • Ambient temperature management
Layer 2

Environmental Detection

  • Temperature & humidity sensors
  • CO and H₂ gas detection
  • Water immersion detection
  • Smoke detection
Layer 3

Fire Suppression

  • Fire suppression system options
  • Automatic activation on detection
  • Manual override capability
  • Integration with site alarm systems
Layer 4

Protection & Emergency Stop

  • Emergency stop (E-stop) function
  • UPS for control systems
  • Lightning protection
  • Short-circuit protection

Safety capability note: The layers above describe the system design approach. Specific sensor types, suppression agents, detection thresholds and protection coordination depend on the platform model and project configuration. No absolute safety guarantee is expressed or implied. All safety systems must be reviewed against applicable local codes and site-specific requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Technical questions answered.

Questions that arise most often in early-stage project conversations. For project-specific technical discussion, use the form below.

Is the 5.016 MWh product AC or DC side?

The current brochure presents the 5.016 MWh platform as a DC-side container. PCS, MV transformer, switchgear and grid connection scope are project-specific and must be engineered and procured separately. The scope boundary should be agreed explicitly before project engineering commences.

Can you provide integrated AC/DC container options?

Yes. The current brochure includes 2.5 MWh / 3.34 MWh (1250 kW and 1670 kW AC variants) and a 4.17 MWh (2 MW-class) integrated AC/DC platform. Exact current model designations, full specifications and container dimensions must be confirmed against the applicable datasheet before engineering use.

Can containers be combined for larger projects?

Yes, in a properly engineered block architecture. Multi-container configurations require explicit interface engineering, protection coordination, site layout approval and, where applicable, utility or regulatory approval. Each expansion phase is treated as an engineering project in its own right.

What project documents are required to begin a technical assessment?

At minimum: basis of design covering MW/MWh and duration, grid voltage, frequency and applicable code, site layout, environmental classification and target COD. Useful additions include a single-line diagram, grid connection agreement, existing SCADA/EMS interface specification and technical scope of work.

What grid codes and certifications do the products support?

Applicable certifications and grid code compliance depend on the specific model and target market. This must be confirmed against the current product documentation and project requirements. Contact our engineering team with your grid code reference and we will advise on the applicable model and certification status.

How is the EMS/SCADA integration handled?

MOLETONG provides HMS and EMS capability within the supply boundary. Integration with project SCADA, utility metering and third-party control systems is a project-specific scope item requiring an interface specification. This should be identified and agreed during the interface review phase.

What is the warranty and O&M support structure?

Warranty terms, O&M support scope and remote monitoring arrangements are defined in the project contract. These vary by project type, geography and agreed service level. Discuss your O&M requirements as part of the technical discussion.
