CLOU Electronics Unveils Next-Generation Aqua-C3.0 Pro Liquid-Cooled Energy Storage System at RE+ Showcase

CLOU Electronics, a global leader in commercial energy storage applications, has launched its next-generation Aqua-C3.0 Pro liquid-cooled energy storage system at the RE+ (Renewable Energy Plus) Showcase in Las Vegas. The system boasts a leapfrog upgrade in efficiency, safety assurance, and operation and maintenance convenience, reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO) by 10.63%. With a single cabinet capacity of 6.88MWh and 600+Ah ultra-large capacity battery cells, the Aqua-C3.0 Pro is a comprehensive innovation of the previous generation star product Aqua-C2.5.

Key Takeaways:

  • The Aqua-C3.0 Pro has achieved a leapfrog upgrade in system efficiency, safety assurance, and operation and maintenance convenience, reducing the TCO by 10.63%.
  • The system utilizes multiple underlying innovations to consistently translate "rated capacity" into "real-world delivery", with direct cooling technology, Smart Scales technology, and SiC string PCS offering lower losses and more stable partial-load performance.
  • The system features a CTR integrated architecture, which eliminates modules and interfaces, ensuring more predictable lifetime discharge capacity and a more robust profit curve.
  • The Aqua-C3.0 Pro has a thermal/electrical path separation and targeted pressure relief, making anomalies more easily localized and controlled.
  • The system utilizes a multi-layered design that couples thermal runaway warning, water-based fire suppression, explosion-proof pressure relief, and active ventilation systems to create a closed-loop protection loop.
  • The system is designed for simplified operations and maintenance, with a standard 20-foot container design, reduced components and interfaces, and real-time active balancing.
  • The launch of the Aqua-C3.0 Pro is expected to enable global customers to develop high-quality energy storage projects.

Statistics:

  • Single cabinet capacity: 6.88MWh
  • Ultra-large capacity battery cells: 600+Ah
  • Total cost of ownership (TCO) reduction: 10.63%
  • System real-time energy delivery (RTE): up to 92.3%
  • Lifetime discharge capacity increase: 4%
  • Maintenance cost reduction: 10%
