Degson's Energy Storage Connectors
What Are Energy Storage Connectors?
Energy storage connectors are specialised electrical interfaces that play a crucial role in modern battery energy storage systems (BESS).
They are designed to ensure safe, reliable, and efficient transfer of electricity between battery modules, power conversion systems, and other components within renewable energy installations or large-scale storage units.
In particular, energy storage connectors used with lithium batteries serve as the bridge between electricity generation and electricity usage, enabling renewable energy to be stored and delivered when needed. While connectors focus on the safe and efficient transfer of power within battery systems, energy storage itself can take many forms, such as pumped hydro, electromechanical storage, hydrogen storage, flywheel storage, and others.
Why We Need Energy Storage
As renewable energy adoption grows, energy storage systems have become essential for ensuring a stable and reliable power supply. Solar panels and wind turbines generate electricity intermittently—only when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing. Energy storage bridges this gap by capturing excess power when production is high and releasing it when demand increases or renewable sources aren’t available.
