To capture solar energy, the Proquinal Costa Rica headquarters in Coyol de Alajuela, installed a covered parking lot with 690 solar panels – an efficient use of space. The captured energy is subsequently stored in an innovative battery system, the only of its kind. . The system uses solar panels to charge batteries during periods of lower energy cost and then, subsequently to deliver stored energy during the two peak periods when cost is highest. Swissol implemented the project, in conjunction with the English / German company, Rolls Royce Solutions. The. . gy storage project opens in Costa Rica. With 98% of its electricity already coming from renewables, the country now faces the challenge of optimizing grid stability and managing intermittent power sources like solar and. . Design challenges associated with a battery energy storage system (BESS), one of the more popular ESS types, include safe usage; accurate monitoring of battery voltage, temperature and current; and strong balancing capability between cells and packs.
