Lithium ion batteries are revolutionizing onsite power systems, creating one of the fastest growing market segments in building technology. This two hour introduction to lithium battery systems covers design considerations necessary to create a reliable backup energy storage system compatible with onsite renewables. Learn how to design a battery system to meet customer expectations by starting with project fundamentals, and then learn the common design mistakes first time battery projects encounter in the field. Learn more about battery components, technical capabilities, and warranties to better select the right battery for the project, while learning more about balance of system material, installation considerations, and charge/discharge settings.
