This partnership will equip clients with superior analytics capabilities designed to reinforce the security, efficiency, and lifespan of lithium-ion batteries utilized in vitality storage and UPS markets.
PowerUp’s cloud-based platform combines synthetic intelligence with a long time of battery analysis to proactively detect potential questions of safety, optimize operational efficiency, and prolong the lifespan of Battery Power Storage System (BESS) belongings. These advantages assist mitigate dangers for BESS venture stakeholders whereas maximizing return on funding.
Along with customary Battery Administration System (BMS) security measures, Socomec clients will profit from an additional layer of safety by way of PowerUp’s patented algorithms. These algorithms allow BESS asset house owners to detect early indicators of battery degradation and determine anomalies months earlier than they escalate into security incidents. This represents a major enchancment over {industry} requirements, which usually determine points solely days or hours earlier than an occasion, giving asset managers important time to guard their infrastructure and income.
Socomec Power Storage Programs clients will achieve worthwhile insights into optimum BESS situations and working parameters. By leveraging this battery science, clients can prolong the lifespan of their belongings by a number of years, considerably rising their return on funding when preventive actions are taken early.
PowerUp’s analytics additionally ship industry-leading accuracy in assessing battery State of Well being (SoH) and State of Cost (SoC) at each module and rack ranges. These insights enhance battery efficiency throughout numerous vitality transition functions, together with seamless renewable vitality integration, optimized electrical car charging infrastructure, and enhanced microgrid stability.
The information-driven method allows SoC accuracy inside ±2% over a battery’s lifetime, facilitating superior upkeep planning to scale back downtime and operational prices.
With out this degree of precision, deviations of over 10% may happen, resulting in inaccurate reporting, potential monetary losses, and even regulatory penalties for BESS asset house owners.
Jean-Marc Guillou, Technical Director of Power Storage Programs at Socomec, acknowledged: “In an {industry} the place fierce competitors on battery pricing can generally come at the price of high quality, this acquisition stands out by integrating modern AI-powered analytics particularly designed to scale back security dangers and enhance efficiency for Socomec clients. This transfer reinforces our market place and drives long-term worth creation. By delivering smarter, data-driven insights, we goal to construct lasting buyer relationships by way of modern, value-added companies.”
Philippe de La Fortelle, Chief Income Officer at PowerUp, added: “There are robust synergies between PowerUp and Socomec throughout our service choices for utility, industrial, and industrial clients. These synergies will generate clear value-added methods for each firms and our respective buyer bases. Changing into a part of Socomec marks an thrilling milestone in PowerUp’s journey, permitting us to use our battery experience throughout Socomec’s various enterprise strains—enhancing efficiency, effectivity, and security for our clients.”
The battery analytics answer is at the moment present process pre-commercialization pilots with a number of Socomec and PowerUp clients and will likely be obtainable to all clients by January 2026.
