Through our Energy and Systems Department, the company specialising in the field of energy has provided training to students participating in the project on the LiFePO4 battery solution. In addition, it has also donated Narada 48NPFC100 48V high energy density lithium batteries.
Tempel Group is actively participating in the project called Blue Containers, where vocational training students from the Building and Civil Engineering family are designing and building a Business Incubator for the entrepreneurial students of the Provençana Institute from the transformation of a maritime container donated by the port of Barcelona, applying different criteria of circular economy and sustainability.
The company specialising in the field of energy thus reaffirms its commitment to the use of new technologies in the implementation of urban and sustainable projects. It also contributes to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established at national, European and international level.
For the project, Tempel Group has opted for a LiFePO4 (lithium-ferrophosphate) battery solution consisting of two 48NPFC100 48V Narada lithium batteries with high energy density that allows a smaller space occupation and a maximisation of the amount of accumulable energy when the plant distribution is limited. In this way, this type of battery offers an availability of up to 9.6 kWh of energy with a minimal footprint and can be flexibly adapted to any energy application within the container.
The main features of the battery bank provided by Tempel Group to the project are:
- The internal LiFePO4 (LFP) cell technology has a long service life and has a fast charging and discharging capacity, thus minimising waiting times and increasing the likelihood of optimum energy availability.
- The Narada lithium battery 48NPFC100 has an integrated management system called Battery Management System (BMS) which, thanks to temperature, voltage and current control, guarantees the safety of the accumulator and the integrity of the rest of the elements, optimising the operation of the battery.
- Narada lithium batteries have RS485 ports in MODBUS RTU protocol that allow monitoring and, therefore, allow integration into remote management and control systems. In addition, they are an integral element of clean energy that can be installed in enclosed spaces and, as it is a lithium battery, it does not require maintenance or periodic control of its internal levels and can be configured with an architecture of up to 8 modules in parallel. Thus, these characteristics of the battery bank become key elements for Blue Containers Project, as they constitute the sustainable energy support required for the development of any activity inside the container, also offering an efficient, ecological and energetically sustainable service.
Tempel Group is a company created in 1978 in Barcelona, which has developed its activity through four business areas: Energy, Engineering, Consumer and Services, and currently has offices in more than 11 Spanish and Portuguese-speaking countries.
