ADS-TEC Energy BatteryContainer is an LFP battery storage system for utility-scale use. It provides 5.015 MWh nominal energy over about 2 hours and uses a DC block. The unit delivers 2.5 MW rated DC power, uses liquid cooling, and weighs 43 tonnes (94,799 lb).
Use Cases
The specifications of ADS-TEC Energy BatteryContainer suggest use in front of the meter, connected to the utility network itself. Its nominal energy places it in the utility-scale size class.
Capabilities
For ADS-TEC Energy BatteryContainer, the specifications suggest peak shaving, discharging into the hours of highest demand. Its shortest listed configuration is 2 h; that configuration makes it a candidate for grid services, support for the operation of the electricity network, and indicates capacity value, being counted on as supply when the network is tight. Its DC block connects through a separate inverter. That points to renewable colocation, storing output from a wind or solar plant on the same site.

Plant Round-Trip Efficiency
The calculator estimates the full "plant" round-trip efficiency (RTE) at the point of interconnection. Some values are pre-blocked depending on information on a particular ESS. The rows that are marked "each way" are one-way efficiencies; they are applied on charge and again on discharge. We then square them. To enter a bundled PCS efficiency value, use its rated-power value, not peak. If the PCS skid already includes the LV/MV transformer, set Transformer LV/MV to 100 % so those losses are not counted twice.
Site Space Required
Shared: one 3 m aisle serves both neighbours. Dedicated: each unit keeps its own 3 m, so gaps double to 6 m.
Single unit — matches the stored area_sqm convention.
