The integration of renewable energy with energy storage technology is the key to achieve a sustainable energy transition. Due to the instability and intermittency of renewable energy, energy storage technology can balance the difference between energy supply and demand and improve the reliability and availability of energy.
 
Containerized energy storage is an emerging energy storage technology that can effectively integrate renewable energy. It usually uses battery packs composed of lithium-ion batteries to store electrical energy and has the advantages of mobility and flexibility. The following are several ways containerized energy storage can integrate renewable energy:
 
Integration of solar panels and ESS container: combine solar panels with ESS container to form an independent solar power generation system that can collect solar energy and store it in container energy storage in sunny conditions. The system can be used in household energy storage systems of urban households to provide independent power supply for households.
 
Integration of wind power generation and ESS container: combine wind power generators with ESS container to convert wind energy into electrical energy and store it in the energy storage for release when needed. This ESS container is suitable for places far away from cities, such as deserts or mountains.
 
Integration of smart microgrid and ESS container: The containerized energy storage system is used as the core of the smart microgrid, combined with renewable energy such as solar energy and wind energy to form a small, independent energy system. The system can provide reliable power supply to off-grid areas and can also be used as an emergency backup power source.
 
Integration of energy storage station and ESS container: The containerized energy storage system can be used as an integral part of the energy storage station to store renewable energy such as solar energy and wind energy for power supply during peak energy demand. Energy storage stations are usually used in large power consumption places such as cities and industrial parks.
 
Containerized energy storage technology can effectively balance the instability and intermittency of renewable energy, improve the reliability and availability of energy, and promote the development and application of renewable energy. Compared with other energy storage technologies, containerized energy storage technology has the advantages of mobility and flexibility and is suitable for various application scenarios. In the future, with the continuous innovation and development of technology, this kind of energy storage technology will play an increasingly important role in the integration of renewable energy.

​Forced air-cooling technology is mature, and air duct design is the key point.
The main point of the design of forced air-cooling technology is to control the air duct to change the wind speed: due to the different energy density and capacity of the batteries in the energy storage system, the battery placement and arrangement structure are different, so the air duct inside the energy storage system needs to be customized design. The air duct can control the direction and path of the air flow, and conduct heat exchange on the surface of the basic battery cells by guiding the cold and warm air generated by the air conditioner and the fan into the interior of the battery module. At present, energy storage systems mostly adopt the thermal management scheme of air conditioning + cooling duct air supply. The air duct is mainly divided into serial ventilation and parallel ventilation, and the parallel ventilation has better uniformity.

The air duct design includes: the main air duct connected to the outlet of the air conditioner, the wind baffle inside the main air duct, the air duct outlet and the wind baffles at both ends of the battery rack. The main air duct is used to transport the output airflow of the air conditioner to the outlets of each air duct: the windshield in the main air duct can distribute the gas flow of each air duct outlet to ensure that the flow of each outlet is consistent; the windshields at both ends of the battery rack are used to prevent airflow Escape from the gap between the battery rack and the inner wall of the container.
​
The air cooler control system includes air conditioner control and battery module fan control: the air conditioner control determines the cooling and heating by judging the internal temperature of the container, and the battery module fan control can adjust the temperature of a single battery.
