With the advancement of global carbon neutralization and energy transformation, new energy storage has ushered in unprecedented development opportunities. According to the statistics from EESA (Energy Storage Leaders), the number of new installations in the global energy storage market in 2023 has exceeded 100GWh, surpassing the historical scale of global energy storage capacity. The global energy storage market has also entered a stage of rapid development.

On the one hand, as the energy storage industry has entered the "fast lane" in the past two years, it has attracted many outstanding companies to the market. During the ESIE 2024 Beijing Energy Storage Exhibition,  leading companies such as SVOLT, REPT, BYD Energy Storage, and CATL leading companies have launched new energy storage products, and the market continues to be popular. On the other hand, overheating markets have also intensified industry competition, brought serious homogeneity of energy storage products, and accelerated the iteration and upgrade of products.

The integration of energy storage system involves a variety of equipment and suppliers, with the locking system being a crucial component. As energy storage system integration continues to evolve, higher requirements are being placed on all supporting products within the system, and conventional locking system solutions can no long meet the new challenges posed by modern energy storage cabinets.

Challenge 1丨 The low load rating of the handle makes it difficult to to ensure the safety of internal components

The obvious development trend of high capacity and high power requires the cabinet dimension (cabinet door) to become larger and larger. In the energy storage industry, there are many components on the cabinet door (such as fire devices, control panels, etc.), thereby increasing the weight of the cabinet door.

When locking with traditional locks, due to the small loading capacity of the locking system, there are problems such as easy deformation and difficulty in locking tightly, which is not conducive to protecting internal components and affects the stability and security of the system's operation.

The updated Yeeka large energy storage access solution features a big swinghandle with  a load capacity of up to 1600N, which is 6 times that of traditional small swinghandle locks.This effectively ensures a tight seal. It's suitable for large cabinets over 2 meters tall. Additionally, the gear-integrated design makes unlocking more effortless and smooth. The handle design extends to the bottom of the housing, reducing occurrence of sticking caused by sediment blockage and ensuring the safe and stable operation of the cabinet.

Challenge 2 丨 Backing bodies occupy a large space, squeezing the internal space of the cabinet

With the increase in the size of the cells, the space in the cabinet has been further squeezed. The new generation of energy storage cabinets addresses the need for high space utilization by reducing the space occupied by non-energy-storage components through reasonable internal layout, modular design, and compact battery packs.

Due to the protruding cam on the back, which occupies a large space, the small swing handle lock currently assembled on energy storage cabinets is not suitable for the needs of the new generation of energy storage cabinets that require integrated technology and design optimization.

YEEKA large energy storage cabinet access solutions feature an integrated, upgraded rod design, with the rod directly installed on the lock. This design reduces the need for manual fixing connections, allowing for easy and fast installation, and occupies less internal space, making it suitable for the compact cabinet.

Challenge 3 丨  Serious product homogeneity hinders the demonstration of unique brand value

Due to the increasing competition in the industry in recent years, there has been a serious phenomenon of product homogeneity. However, and the brand "LOGO" has established differentiation and identification among thousands of energy storage equipment, playing a key role.

YEEKA large energy storage cabinet access solutions can be customized with logo designs for brand enhancement according to customer needs.

Challenge 4 丨 Outdoor applications applications demand high equipment service life

Most of the energy storage equipment adopts the outdoor integrated layout solution such as cabin or cabinet types. In outdoor applications, they are often exposed to natural environments without shelter and frequently face challenges such as high temperature, high humidity, and erosion from rain and snow, all of which can affect their lifespan and safety. Therefore, there is an extremely high requirement for salt prevention.

YEEKA large energy storage cabinet access solutions are designed with waterproof structures on the cylinder, handle, and lock back. They undergo a salt spray test can last up to 300 hours. This design effectively protects the internal components, ensuring the safety and reliability of the equipment throughout its entire lifecycle.
