PV Solar / Wind / Hybrid Gensets
A short-life battery without the robustness to tolerate the heavy cycling and harsh use that your renewable energy system demands can soon make your storage system a costly burden. Enter the Firefly Oasis battery, designed specifically for deep-discharge, abusive conditions. No other battery comes close.
Renewable energy sources are capable of powering homes and
businesses. However, their energy sources are not always
available as in the case of solar panels at night or
overcast days and wind turbines on a still day. To
supplement these periods of no energy, batteries must be
utilized. This results in batteries being subjected to deep
discharge during the lapses of renewable energy and recharge
when the energy returns. Traditional batteries used in this
application are not designed to cater to this kind of
discharge and charge cycles which causes a drop in capacity
in as little as 200 cycles. This is where the Oasis battery
is far ahead of the competition.
Firefly OASIS MCF G31M battery represents a new and
revolutionary approach to storing energy. Unlike
conventional lead acid batteries – which use grids of lead
alloy and have short lives when heavily discharged – Oasis
uses the patented Microcell Carbon foam technology to
deliver more power and longer life under extreme conditions.
In fact, Oasis has been engineered from the ground up to
meet the highly strenuous energy demands of renewable energy
systems and thus enable users to hassle free and
“Power-full” lives.
