Containerized Energy Storage Systems
A battery plant that arrives on a truck. Both SiRay containers are wired, commissioned and tested before they leave Suzhou - on site, the work is a foundation, a cable and a handshake with your SCADA.

Common Questions
What comes in a containerized energy storage system from SiRay?
The ESS-1M2-20FT delivers 1.2 MWh at 768 V from 75 modules of 51.2 V 314 Ah in a standard 20-foot container measuring 6058 x 2438 x 2896 mm and weighing 16 tonnes. The ESS-2M4-40FT delivers 2.411 MWh from 150 modules in a 40-foot container. Both include air cooling, fire detection and suppression, CANBUS and Modbus TCP/IP communication, 90% depth of discharge and 96% system efficiency, with a design life above 15 years.
How long does it take to deploy a containerized ESS?
A SiRay container ships wired and factory-tested, so on-site work is limited to a foundation, cable termination and a SCADA handshake. SiRay does not publish a fixed number of days because foundation and port clearance vary by country; the containerized design exists specifically to avoid the civil works that a built-on-site plant requires.
What is the operating temperature range of SiRay storage cabinets?
SiRay C&I cabinets operate from -20 to 50 ℃. The residential GLR and GHR modules charge from 0 to 55 ℃ and discharge from -20 to 60 ℃. The ESS containers operate from 0 to 50 ℃. All outdoor cabinets are rated below 2000 m altitude.
