4 FAQs about Nas battery energy storage

What is a NaS battery?

NAS batteries are long-duration, high-energy stationary storage batteries. They feature long life and enhanced safety and can provide a stable power supply over six hours or longer. In more than 20 years they have been deployed at over 250 locations worldwide, with a total output of almost five gigawatt-hours.

How long do NaS batteries last?

While having a high energy density and fast response time, the systems also convince by a design life of 20 years, or 7,300 operating cycles due to a very low degradation level. The NAS battery storage solution is containerised: each 20-ft container combines six modules adding up to 250kW output and 1,450kWh energy storage capacity.

Where can I learn more about NaS batteries?

To learn more about NAS batteries, visit the BASF website here. BASF Stationary Energy Storage GmbH will be presenting the technology at this year’s Intersolar Europe / ees Europe in Munich, Germany, from 14 to 16 June 2023 at exhibition booth B1.209.

How does NaS battery storage work?

The NAS battery storage solution is containerised: each 20-ft container combines six modules adding up to 250kW output and 1,450kWh energy storage capacity. Multiple containers can be combined to create bigger installations of any required size.
