Industrial & CommercialAC BlockUpdated Sep 23, 2026

Supplied as an AC block, Absen Energy Cube 261-Plus is an LFP battery energy storage system for commercial and industrial use with 261.2 kWh nominal energy. It supports 2 and 8 hour configurations. The system reaches 90% DC round-trip efficiency and uses liquid cooling with 314 Ah prismatic cells.

Use Cases

Absen Energy Cube 261-Plus has an energy capacity in the commercial and industrial class. It connects at 300 V, a low-voltage AC connection, and these specifications indicate use behind the meter.

Capabilities

Absen Energy Cube 261-Plus has a shortest listed configuration of 2 h, which points to peak shaving, discharging into the hours of highest demand. Its longest listed configuration is 8 h, and the specifications suggest capacity value, standing in as firm capacity when demand peaks. Its AC block includes the inverter, which makes it a candidate for renewable colocation, operating alongside a wind or solar plant on one site.

Both measured at the grid connection point. The plant's own power use is already included in the losses.

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.
