MUNICH — On June 19, CATL unveiled TENER, an energy storage system that they say has zero degradation in the first five years of use. CATL unveiled this technology at ees Europe, an international exhibition for batteries and energy storage systems in Europe.
The TENER energy storage system achieves zero degradation in power and capacity over five years through advanced bionic SEI and self-assembling electrolyte technologies, helping to ensure long-term stability and safety by addressing lithium metal reactivity and thermal runaway risks.
Utilizing CATL’s L-series cells with an energy density of 430Wh/L, TENER boasts a 6.25 MWh capacity in a 20-foot container, enhancing energy density per unit area by 30% and reducing overall station footprint by 20%.
CATL also established a dedicated, end-to-end quality management system for TENER, which includes technology development, proof testing, operation monitoring, and safety failure analysis. The management system sets safety goals for different scenarios and develops technologies to meet them.
“I am thrilled to announce that Rolls-Royce and CATL have entered into a strategic cooperation to bring CATL’s innovative TENER product line to the European Union and the United Kingdom,” said Perry Kuiper, SVP Sales of Sustainable Power Solutions at Rolls-Royce Power Systems. “This partnership not only underscores our commitment to delivering cutting-edge, reliable, and efficient energy storage solutions but also strengthens our ability to support the energy transition with sustainable and robust infrastructure.
