ESA ENERGY STORAGE 28TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE & EXPO
April 18th-20th, 2018
Hynes Converntion Center — Boston, MA
For decades, energy storage technology has continued to advance towards integrating electricity from any source into a more resilient
and reliable grid, creating jobs, lowering energy bills, and helping to secure our energy future. Now, energy storage is proven and ready for business and the 28th Annual Energy Storage Association Conference and Expo (#ESACon18) is where that business happens. Here, network to make those connections to grow your business. Here, access premier education from the energy storage industry’s best and brightest. Here, collaborate with stakeholders across the full spectrum of energy resources. And here, directly support the association’s mission to transform and expand energy storage markets in the United States. With leading industry speakers, dozens insightful education sessions, site tours to advanced energy projects, multiple workshops led by renowned experts, over 70 exhibiting companies, and nearly 2,000 attendees from 30+ countries, ESA is the go-to for energy storage education and a vital gathering place for the industry.

Behind the meter battery energy systems
For smart buildings and cities wanting to increase renewable integration and reduce the impact of increases in the electricity retail price, Socomec has developed SUNSYS XTEND ESS. is smart storage solution maximizes the energy self-consumption for industrial and commercial applications. Any energy surplus is stored in the battery system, and the energy is used later to supply the load. When the retail cost
of electricity is low, the batteries are charged and used to supply the loads during peak demand when prices are high. Available from 33kW to 1MW, Socomec’s solution is UL 9540 certi ed. Socomec | www.socomec.us
Optimized and e icient large-scale storage solution
Y.Station is a solution for large-
capacity grid-scale storage projects from a few megawatts to many. It is pre-designed and pre-engineered to provide an optimized system layout while minimizing system losses, as
well as facilitating e cient project planning and faster project deployment. Because operating e ciencies deserve as much attention as installation e ciencies, Y.Station prioritizes reducing auxiliary losses, cost-e ective system redundancies, and robust communications across high numbers of battery racks. Real-time operation
of the Y.Station is monitored and controlled by Y.Q, a powerful integrated software platform and the brains behind every Younicos energy storage solution. Younicos | www.younicos.com
Turn-key battery energy storage solution
LYNC DR is a turnkey battery energy storage system that delivers uninterruptible power
to facilities, lowers energy costs, integrates renewables and other DERs into a resilient microgrid, and provides grid-stabilizing services to utilities and ISOs. Built into LYNC DR is AutoLYNC, a proprietary microgrid architecture and controller which o ers quick response time to deliver stable and resilient power when it’s needed the most. LYNC DR
is capable of islanding/grid forming and
can seamlessly keep PV running during an islanding event. is ability was third-party validated by NREL in 2017. LYNC DR is Open ADR 2.0b enabled, allowing any utility or end- use customer to directly communicate with and control the energy storage system, has an aggregation portal built right into the control panel, and a customer-friendly, web-based interface for 24/7 monitoring.

DC-coupled solar-plus- storage
e DPS-375kW DC to DC converter
is designed for coupling both existing
and new utility-scale solar installations with energy storage. Installing DC- coupled utility-scale solar-plus-storage with a DPS-375 eliminates the need for costly switchgear and other equipment, signi cantly reducing the cost to install energy storage compared to doing so
with an AC-Coupled or Hybrid inverter. e use of the DPS-375 and its patent pending technology also increases energy production and revenues for utility-scale solar installations by way of clipping recapture and low voltage harvest, both
of which are only available through DC- coupled solar-plus-storage. e use of a DPS-375 when adding energy storage to utility-scale installation is e cient and ITC eligible. Multiple units can be paralleled together and Dynapower o ers the DPS- 375 with fully-integrated systems as well. DynapowerCompany, LLC www.dynapower.com
Semi integrated BES
e semi-integrated BES solution, driven by SINEXCEL, is not limited to battery technologies, and can support most batteries including lead-acid, lithium- ion, ow battery, and super capacitor. e standard electric room bene t from modular and ETL/CPUC/HECO listed PCS o ers maximum space for battery. e built-in transformer, switches,
re suppression, and local controls reduce many complications and cost of installation. ere are NEMA 3R rating cabinets and 10/20/40ft containers for di erent power and energy requirements in community, commercial, and industrial applications.
