UniQube™: High-Power Conversion for Evolving Energy Storage Requirements
UniQube™ is Nidec’s new liquid-cooled power conversion system (PCS) platform, engineered to support large-scale energy storage applications, including systems with storage durations of two to eight hours. Its modular architecture provides flexible configurations to accommodate different project requirements.
Designed for outdoor installation, UniQube™ uses liquid cooling to support consistent performance in demanding environments, including high-temperature climates. Its compact architecture delivers up to 20% higher power density compared with the stated market benchmark, helping customers optimize available space and simplify system integration.
The platform supports current 1500 V applications and is designed to accommodate the industry’s transition toward 2000 V systems. Its flexible architecture also supports applications beyond battery storage, including solar and hydrogen-related energy infrastructure.
ACBOX™ V4: Integrated Energy Storage with Advanced Grid-Forming Capabilities
ACBOX™ V4represents the latest evolution of Nidec’s integrated AC-block BESS architecture, designed to address increasingly demanding grid requirements while supporting system efficiency, reliability and scalability.
Engineered with a distributed power conversion architecture incorporating silicon-carbide (SiC) semiconductor technology, ACBOX™ V4 enables more granular energy management and is designed to improve system efficiency and availability.
Native grid-forming capabilities help support grid stability and resilience, enabling energy storage systems to play a more active role in modern power networks as renewable generation increases. The platform also incorporates a cybersecurity-by-design approach and supply chain transparency considerations to address growing customer expectations around system security, equipment sourcing and long-term operational confidence.
Integrated Capabilities for the Evolving Energy Market
Nidec combines proprietary hardware and software developed in-house with manufacturing, system integration and project execution capabilities. Through regional engineering expertise, local project execution and long-term lifecycle services, Nidec offers customers an integrated partner across the energy storage project lifecycle, helping simplify execution, manage complexity and support reliable system performance.
As energy infrastructure needs evolve, Nidec continues to connect its technologies and expertise across the business to deliver practical innovations that create long-term value for customers.
