It combines 20 liquid-cooled battery modules, each with a nominal capacity of 95 kWh, from a fully electric SUV manufactured by a well-known German automaker. This gives the system a total capacity of 1.9 MWh with a maximum output of 1.25 MW. The storage system can provide balancing power and participates in energy trading.<\/p>\n<p>A particular advantage of this second-life approach lies in the significantly improved carbon footprint of the entire system. The reuse of vehicle batteries that have already been produced avoids the energy- and resource-intensive new production of stationary storage systems, thereby reducing the demand for primary raw materials such as lithium, cobalt, or nickel.<\/p>\n<p>Since a large portion of a battery system\u2019s emissions occurs during the manufacturing phase, extending the service life allows the \u201cgray energy\u201d originally invested to be used more efficiently and spread over more years of operation. At the same time, integration into the energy market helps to better utilize renewable energy, balance grid fluctuations, and replace fossil fuel power plants.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the reuse of battery storage systems thus represents a sustainable solution that combines ecological advantages with economic benefits and makes an important contribution to the circular economy.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Tim M\u00fcller, Managing Director of TRICERA energy, comments: \u201cWith the acquisition of the storage facility in Berlin, we as a company are driving forward the development of this business segment. Those who know us and follow our work know that our original and ongoing goal was and remains the repurposing of existing automotive battery modules. We are therefore delighted to be operating such a storage facility ourselves for the first time in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Mobility House Energy will continue to market the Berlin battery storage facility. With ten years of experience\u2014starting with second-life battery storage\u2014and now over 1 GW of total operational capacity across four countries, The Mobility House Energy is one of the leading marketers of battery storage in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBattery storage systems are a key component of a stable and renewable energy system\u2014and their economic potential is only just beginning to be understood and taken into account in regulations. We look forward to collaborating with TRICERA energy and to further joint projects,\u201d adds Marcus Fendt, Managing Director of The Mobility House Energy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Background TRICERA energy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To a new era &#8211; that is the vision of TRICERA energy GmbH. Based in Dresden, this sustainable company specializes in the development, construction, and operation of large-scale (&gt;5 MWh) battery storage systems, thereby enabling an optimized, demand-responsive, and renewable energy supply.<\/p>\n<p>Its core business encompasses four areas of expertise: engineering and consulting, project development, system integration as an EPC contractor, and maintenance and technical operations. With a team of 80 employees, including leading experts in the battery industry and extensive experience across various fields of expertise, TRICERA energy is a qualified partner when it comes to the energy transition.<\/p>\n<p>To date, TRICERA has installed 290 megawatt-hours of energy capacity and 150 megawatts of power; an additional 250 MWh and 100 MW are already in the works.<\/p>\n<p>Further
