Core Insights - The article discusses the rapid growth and opportunities in the energy storage industry, particularly in the context of power market reforms and digitalization [2][3]. Group 1: Industry Trends - The global energy storage market is entering a "blowout period," with an increase in both project numbers and product specifications, leading to a tight supply of energy storage PCS (Power Conversion Systems) [3]. - The mainstream price range for 2.5MW PCS is between 0.075-0.078 yuan/W, with a penetration rate rapidly increasing to 70%-80%, making it the current industry standard [7][8]. Group 2: Company Developments - CRRC Zhuzhou Electric Locomotive Co., Ltd. (中车时代电气) has received over 2GW in orders for its liquid-cooled centralized storage PCS-2.5MW, which has passed national standard certification [4][8]. - Other companies such as Sungrow Power Supply, Shenghong Electric, and Kehua Data have also actively positioned themselves in the energy storage market [5]. Group 3: Product Innovations - The 2.5MW liquid-cooled centralized storage PCS developed by CRRC Zhuzhou Electric features a response time of 5 milliseconds and can handle overload outputs of three times the rated current within 10 seconds [4][7]. - The industry is transitioning towards 3MW+ PCS models, with companies like Xingyun Co., Ltd. and CRRC Zhuzhou Electric releasing models ranging from 3.2MW to 3.5MW to match larger capacity storage systems [10]. Group 4: Market Challenges - Transitioning from 2.5MW to 3MW+ PCS involves overcoming multiple technical challenges, including increased cooling requirements and the need for more complex control algorithms [11]. - The delivery cycle for large PCS has extended from 45 days to 75 days due to increased demand and supply chain constraints [13].
