Delivering Integrated PCS Energy Storage Substations for Israel

In 2023, CEEG successfully delivered 15 PCS Integrated Booster and Converter Substations for energy storage projects in Israel, supporting key clients such as Israel Electric Corporation (IEC), Afcon, BYD&NR. This also marked Israel as the first export destination for this type of equipment.

Client Background

IEC is the largest electricity provider in Israel, while Afcon is a prominent player in the country’s infrastructure, control systems, and renewable energy sectors. The equipment supplied by CEEG integrates transformers, PCS (Power Conversion Systems), and high/low-voltage switchgear into a compact, turnkey solution—designed to deliver efficient and reliable energy storage support.

Meeting Harsh Environmental Demands

Most of Israel's energy storage stations are located in desert and semi-arid regions, which places high demands on equipment durability. These projects require solutions that can perform reliably under challenging environmental conditions. In addition, the country emphasizes efficiency, operational reliability, and environmental sustainability in the selection of energy storage equipment.

Factory Visit, On-Time Delivery, and After-sale Support

During on-site visits to CEEG’s factory, clients recognized our advanced manufacturing capabilities, compliance with local standards, and strong technical expertise in transformer and energy storage technologies. To ensure product quality and timely delivery, CEEG’s production and R&D teams worked in close coordination—refining manufacturing plans, adjusting technical schemes based on client feedback, and optimizing the production schedule to boost efficiency. All units passed rigorous testing procedures and met international and industry standards. The 15 integrated substations were delivered in three shipments, arriving on time and ready for deployment. CEEG also provided clients with detailed operation videos, remote technical support, and comprehensive training to ensure smooth commissioning and long-term system reliability.

Key Product Features

1. Turnkey Integration:

Combines transformer, PCS, and switchgear in a factory-tested, ready-to-install unit housed in a container. No special lifting tools required.

2. Built for Harsh Environments:

Rated IP65, suitable for year-round outdoor use. Operates at -30°C to 60°C (output needs to be derated above 50°C), and maintains full capacity up to 2000 meters elevation (special customization is required above 2000 meters). Wind- and sand-resistant, salt-spray and corrosion-resistant.

3. High Reliability and Safety:

Dry-type transformers meet C2, E2, F1 classifications. Enclosure corrosion protection up to C5 level.

4. Lower Investment, Higher Return:

Streamlined design eliminates two low-voltage cabinets. Reduces the number of foundations from two to one. Installation efficiency doubled.

5. Flexible Configuration:

Supports cast resin/VPI dry-type or oil-immersed transformers. HV side voltage from 6kV to 35kV, DC side up to 1500VDC. Single-unit capacity up to 10MW.

This project highlights CEEG’s commitment to delivering smart, durable, and cost-effective solutions for global energy storage needs—backed by engineering expertise, customization capabilities, and full-lifecycle service.
