A sodium sulphur battery is a high-temperature battery. It operates at 300°C and uses a solid electrolyte. One electrode is molten sodium and the other is molten sulphur, and it is the reaction between these two that is the basis for the cell reaction. NAS batteries are long-life, high-energy stationary storage batteries.
Today, BASF not only distributes the NAS battery worldwide, it is also working with NGK on the next generation of sodium-sulfur batteries, with product launches forthcoming in 2024. To learn more about NAS batteries, visit the BASF website here.
Depending on your energy storage need, one or more containers can be installed. Containers have been tested for self-extinguishing capabilities and mechanical stability. NAS ® Batteries cells and modules are certified as recognized components to UL 1973 standard. Additionally, NAS ® Battery cells and modules have been evaluated using UL 9540A.
Not surprisingly, NAS batteries have been chosen in several recent projects for co-location with hydrogen production. Across the globe, testing and certification of energy storage technologies from cell to system level according to UL9540A and UL1973 standards is becoming crucial for bankability.
The NAS battery system was ordered through BASF Stationary Energy Storage GmbH, a subsidiary of German chemical manufacturer BASF SE and headquartered in Ludwigshafen, Germany. A stationary energy storage system was erected on the site of BASF Schwarzheide GmbH.
The cells are packed into a module, whereby 6 modules are mounted in one battery container. We supply containerized NAS ® battery systems with 250KW/1.450MWh. The compact form enables easy transportation and quick installation at our customers' sites. Depending on your energy storage need, one or more containers can be installed.
