Our Technologies

Four layers.
One platform.

Every Prime system is built on the same integrated technology stack. Cell chemistry, battery management, site control, and cloud analytics are engineered to work together; consistent, predictable behaviour from commissioning through end of life.

01 / 04 Energy Management System

Full visibility of every plant,
from anywhere.

The Prime EMS gives operators a single interface for every plant in their portfolio; live performance data, state of health, alarm history, and remote control in one place. Whether managing one plant or many across multiple countries, the data is always current.

Hosted in a European data center and accessible from any browser — no local software to install, no client to maintain. Any plant in the portfolio is a sign-in away.

Monitoring

Live system health

Real-time data on state of charge, state of health, temperature, and power flow across every rack in every plant. Fault events are logged with full context for rapid diagnosis; no plant visit required.

Optimization

Charge and dispatch control

Schedule charge and discharge cycles around tariff windows, renewable production, and demand patterns. The system continuously adapts dispatch to maximize the value delivered from stored energy.

Reporting

Performance reporting

Historical data and exportable performance reports for every asset. Designed to support operational reviews, warranty claims, and degradation tracking across the full system lifetime.

Operations

Single dashboard across all plants in a portfolio
SoH monitoring across all racks; degradation data available for asset management and warranty review
Full alarm history and event log exportable for compliance and insurance purposes
Remote firmware updates and configuration changes without plant attendance

Integration

API access for third-party integration with SCADA and asset management systems
Compatible with on-premises deployment for operators with specific data requirements
Bidirectional control; commands reach field devices with sub-second latency
System continues operating autonomously if cloud connectivity is interrupted

02 / 04 On-site Gateway

Site control that works
independent of the cloud.

The on-site gateway handles all local control logic: peak shaving, scheduling, power quality, and protection coordination. It operates autonomously; if the internet connection drops, the plant continues running exactly as configured.

For installation and commissioning teams, the gateway provides a local web interface accessible directly over Ethernet; no cloud login or external network required. All system parameters, live data, and diagnostic tools are available on-site from day one.

Single point of configuration for the entire plant; no separate vendor portals
Designed for grid operator integration including IEC 60870-5-104 for utility SCADA

03 / 04 Power Conversion

Power conversion matched
to the application.

Three inverter tiers cover the full range from commercial and industrial installations through utility-scale BESS. Each is validated and integrated into Prime skids against our cell chemistry, BMS, and EMS; the correct tier is selected at design stage based on DC bus voltage, power requirements, and grid connection type.

Round-trip efficiency is measured across the full load range. The figure is sustained from 20% to 100% load; covering real-world BESS dispatch including partial-load frequency regulation and overnight charge cycles. All tiers are IEC certified and compliant with European grid codes.

04 / 04 Battery Management System

Protection and performance
across the full system lifetime.

The battery management system in every Prime rack monitors each cell individually and enforces protection at both hardware and firmware levels; independently of the site controller or cloud. Faults are detected at the source, contained at the rack level, and reported up the stack before they affect system availability.

Protection and state estimation run on the same platform. State of charge, state of health, remaining energy, and maximum available power are reported continuously to the EMS; enabling accurate dispatch without operating the pack outside safe limits.

LFP / NMC / Li-ionCell-level monitoring

Cell-level monitoring

Every cell, monitored individually.

Live
BalancedBalancing

Each cell is monitored for voltage and temperature. Balancing engages the moment a cell drifts, contained at the rack level before it affects pack performance.

    Hotspots are detected and isolated before thermal propagation.

  • 03Rack

    Fault containment

Safety

Emergency stop: A dedicated hardware input triggers immediate disconnection of all racks simultaneously, overriding any software state. The protection path does not depend on firmware execution or network communication.

Isolation

Continuous isolation monitoring: The system monitors electrical isolation between the high-voltage bus and chassis ground at all times. A fault is detected and the system is isolated before it can create a risk to personnel or adjacent equipment.

Scalability; current capacity by rack count
