Economic Daily News: NCHU, PBC, and Megago cooperate to develop grid-connected power generation systems

The RSC team, established by Associate Professor Lai Ching-ming of the Department of Electrical Engineering at National Chung Hsing University through a subsidy from the Ministry of Education, recently developed a 48V/5kW residential/commercial energy storage grid-connected power generation system in cooperation with Phoenix Battery Corp. and Megago Tech. The system can be used to integrate microgrids, strengthen grid stability, and improve power supply reliability. Associate Professor Lai said that this 48V/5kW residential/commercial energy storage power generation system has a storage battery capacity of 10kWh and a maximum discharge current of about 100A. That is about the same as the average daily electricity consumption of each household in Taiwan; so, in other words, the system can support one household’s electricity needs for a day. In addition, with consideration to time-variant pricing, this system can also store electricity during off-peak hours and then supply electricity during peak hours. This allows consumers to keep electricity consumption within lower electricity rate ranges, thereby achieving the goal of saving electricity costs.
