Understanding the Energy Capacity and Applications of BESS Containers | TLS Energy

5/19/2025

 
Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) containers are critical components in today’s energy infrastructure. As more power grids incorporate renewable energy, the role of BESS in balancing power supply and demand has become increasingly important. One of the key specifications of a BESS container is its energy capacity—but what does this mean, and how does it relate to power output?

What Is Energy Capacity in a BESS Container?
Energy capacity is the total amount of electricity that a BESS container can store and later discharge. It is measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh) or megawatt-hours (MWh). This value reflects how long the system can provide energy at a certain power level before needing to recharge.
For example, a 2 MWh BESS container can deliver 1 MW of power continuously for 2 hours, or 0.5 MW for 4 hours.

The Relationship Between Power and Energy
In energy storage, power (measured in kW or MW) refers to the rate at which energy is delivered, while energy is the total amount of electricity stored.

  • Power = how fast you can deliver energy
  • Energy = how much you can store

The product of power and time gives you the energy:
Energy (MWh) = Power (MW) × Time (hours)
This relationship is crucial in designing a BESS container to match the needs of specific applications. A high-power, low-energy system might be used for short bursts (like frequency regulation), while a high-energy, lower-power system is ideal for long-duration backup or load shifting.

Typical Energy Capacity of a BESS Container
The energy capacity of a standard BESS container varies based on battery type, voltage, and configuration. TLS Energy commonly offers BESS containers ranging from 1 MWh to over 6 MWh per 20-foot.
With advancements in battery cell technology, especially high-capacity LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) cells, modern systems can now pack more energy into the same footprint, improving energy density and reducing the cost per kWh.

Typical Applications of BESS Containers
BESS containers are used in a wide range of applications, including:

  1. Renewable Energy Integration
    Store excess solar or wind energy for use when production is low.
  2. Peak Shaving and Load Shifting
    Reduce electricity costs by shifting energy usage to off-peak hours.
  3. Backup Power Supply
    Provide emergency backup during grid outages for commercial or utility sites.
  4. Grid Stabilization
    Support grid frequency and voltage regulation with fast-responding power.
  5. Microgrids and Off-grid Solutions
    Enable energy independence for remote areas or industrial zones.

Conclusion

Understanding the energy capacity and power relationship in BESS containers is essential for choosing the right system. Whether your goal is to reduce energy costs, increase reliability, or support renewable integration, TLS Energy provides scalable, safe, and high-performance BESS containers tailored to your energy needs.

Powering Remote Operations: Discover the Robust 40ft MCC Shelter by TLS Offshore Containers

5/16/2025

 
​In the demanding world of oil & gas, mining, renewable energy, and large-scale construction, reliable electrical infrastructure in remote or harsh locations isn't a luxury – it's a necessity. Deploying critical power control systems in such environments presents unique challenges. This is where specialized, robust solutions are essential. Enter the 40ft MCC Shelter from TLS Offshore Containers, designed specifically to meet these rigorous demands.

What is a 40ft MCC Shelter?
At its core, an MCC Shelter houses a Motor Control Center (MCC). An MCC is a vital component in electrical distribution systems, containing essential devices like circuit breakers, contactors, and relays that control and protect motors and other electrical equipment.

A 40ft MCC Shelter takes this critical equipment and places it within a highly modified, durable 40ft shipping container. This creates a self-contained, secure, weather-resistant, and climate-controlled environment, purpose-built for deploying complex electrical power control systems anywhere they are needed, no matter how challenging the location.

Why Choose a TLS 40ft MCC Shelter?
TLS Offshore Containers is a leader in providing robust, functional container solutions. Their 40ft MCC Shelters stand out due to several key features and advantages:
  • Robust Construction: Built to stringent DNV 2.7-1 / EN 12079 standards, these shelters are engineered to withstand the harshest offshore and onshore conditions. Constructed from high-grade steel with corrosion-resistant coatings, they promise longevity and require minimal maintenance.
  • Optimal Climate Control: Sensitive electrical equipment needs stable temperatures. Equipped with advanced HVAC systems, these shelters maintain optimal operating conditions regardless of external extreme weather.
  • Integrated Fire & Safety: Safety is paramount. TLS shelters come fitted with fire detection and suppression systems, along with essential emergency lighting and exits, ensuring compliance with critical safety regulations.
  • Fully Customizable: Every project has unique electrical layouts and requirements. TLS offers extensive customization options, including specific electrical configurations, cable entry points, ventilation solutions, and access arrangements to perfectly match your needs.
  • Easy Transportation & Deployment: Designed based on standard container dimensions, these 40ft units are easily transported and deployed using conventional lifting and handling equipment, making them ideal for remote and difficult-to-access sites.

Advantages That Drive Efficiency
Opting for a prefabricated 40ft MCC Shelter from TLS offers significant operational benefits:
  • Rapid Deployment: Unlike traditional construction, these shelters are pre-fabricated and ready for use upon delivery, drastically cutting down project lead times.
  • Cost-Effective: They provide a more economically viable alternative to building permanent structures in remote or temporary locations.
  • High Mobility: Project needs change. These shelters can be easily relocated, offering unparalleled flexibility and adaptability.
  • Reduced Risk: By protecting critical electrical equipment from environmental damage, theft, and vandalism, they ensure greater operational continuity and reliability.

Applications Across Demanding Industries
The versatility and resilience of TLS 40ft MCC Shelters make them invaluable across a range of industries:
  1. Oil & Gas: Essential for offshore platforms, drilling rigs, and onshore processing facilities.
  2. Mining: Provides crucial power control at remote mining sites and processing plants.
  3. Renewable Energy: Supports infrastructure at wind farms, solar power plants, and hydroelectric stations.
  4. Construction: Ideal for providing temporary or semi-permanent power distribution on large construction sites.
  5. Disaster Relief: Can be rapidly deployed to provide temporary power distribution in emergency or disaster-stricken areas.
