Intelligent control systems for large-scale battery storage systems
When components become an intelligent energy system
Available exclusively with INTILION battery energy storage systems

Battery energy storage systems consist of multiple individual components, including batteries, inverters, grid connections, and software applications. Only through intelligent control do these components form a fully functional and coordinated system.

INTILION control units connect these components into an integrated energy system. They manage energy flows, integrate applications, and ensure that battery storage systems operate reliably, grid-compliant, and economically.

The INTILION control architecture consists of the INTILION Application Unit (IAU) and the INTILION Control Unit (ICU). Together, they form the central control layer of modern battery energy storage systems.

Integration into the energy system

INTILION control systems connect battery energy storage systems with technical components, grid interfaces, and external applications.

This creates a coordinated energy system that can respond flexibly to changing requirements and market conditions.

INTILION Application Unit

The central system intelligence

The INTILION Application Unit (IAU) is the central control and regulation element within the INTILION system architecture. This is where system information is processed, applications are controlled and energy flows are coordinated.

It forms the superordinate control level at which battery systems, inverters, grid connections and external applications are brought together.

This turns individual components into an intelligent and flexible energy system.

Functions:

  • Implementation of various storage applications
  • Integration of energy management systems
  • Interfaces to trading and market platforms
  • Coordination of complex operating strategies
  • Support for grid-compliant operating modes

The IAU can also be used as a certified EZA controller and thus supports the grid-compliant operation of battery storage systems.

INTILION Control Unit

Connection between controller and system

The INTILION Control Unit forms the technical interface between the battery system, inverters and the higher-level control system.

It collects system data, connects inverters to the control system and ensures that all technical components work together reliably.

Functions:

  • Integration and control of the inverters
  • Communication with the application unit
  • Data acquisition and system monitoring
  • Coordination of technical system components
Applications

Supported applications in operation

The control architecture enables various applications in the operation of battery storage systems, e.g.

Load peaks

Peak shaving

Reduction of peak loads through targeted use of storage capacity in order to limit grid connection power and optimize power costs.

Solar system

Self-consumption optimization

Increasing the proportion of self-consumption by temporarily storing generated energy and using it as required.

Multi

Multi-use applications

Combination of several applications within a storage system to maximize flexibility and economic use of storage capacity.

Atypical grid usage

Grid stabilization

Supporting grid stability by quickly providing or absorbing power to stabilize frequency and voltage.

Training

Integration in EMS

Integration of the battery storage system into higher-level energy management systems for coordinated control of energy generation, consumption and storage.

INTILION Control Unit

The connection between system and control unit

The INTILION Control Unit (ICU) forms the technical interface between the battery system, inverters and the higher-level control system. It collects system data, connects inverters to the control system and ensures that all technical components work together reliably.

It thus creates the basis for stable and safe operation of the entire battery storage system.

Functions

  • Integration and control of the inverters
  • Communication with the application unit
  • Data acquisition and system monitoring
  • Coordination of technical system components
  • Flexible integration into various applications
