Merus ESS can cater to various applications, providing grid balancing, ancillary services, and microgrid optimization.
Merus ESS is a high-power, fast-reacting, and reliable lithium-ion-based battery energy storage system fully designed and manufactured by Merus Power.
We are a Finnish leader in the energy storage solutions sector. We specialize in the manufacturing and system integration of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
With a solid track record of deploying close to 100 Megawatts of Merus® ESS projects, we stand out as a technology company with our own PCS converter (Power Conversion System) and EMS production (Energy Management System). Additionally, we excel in Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) services, and full project development, including thorough business case analysis.
All you need for a future-proof energy storage project.
BESS technology manufactured in Finland
- The core of our system features Bi-directional inverters, a proprietary system level control platform, and an Energy Management System (EMS), all designed and manufactured by Merus Power.
- We source batteries from the global market, selecting the best options to meet the specific needs of our customers’ projects.
Turnkey delivery
We begin by crafting an optimal business case for each customer, ensuring full system delivery that includes installations, project management, commissioning, grid code compliance, and acceptance tests. The lifetime value and availability of the system are guaranteed through Merus Power’s Operations & Maintenance service and our trading service.
Industry-leading Safety
The Merus® ESS features a robust and redundant design across multiple levels to maintain system operation even if individual components or smaller systems fail. It incorporates robust components designed to withstand various malfunctions and heavy-duty environments, including cold climates and coastal conditions. We collaborate closely with fire departments and other local authorities, ensuring the implementation of best industry practices for critical infrastructure-level cybersecurity.
With the exception of the batteries, the entire solution from controllers to inverters is manufactured in our own premises in Finland using innovative and high-quality Merus® Technology. Thanks to its scalable technology, modular structure, and easy configurability, our battery energy storage system can be customized according to the individual electrical needs of each customer. Batteries are purchased from the global battery market from major recognized suppliers, always keeping in mind sustainability, energy efficiency, and of course the end customer’s best interest. Therefore, all our battery energy storages are specifically built and tailored to provide the best possible solution.
With our Arctic design, our Merus® ESS battery energy storage systems are engineered to endure the most extreme Nordic winters. These systems are built to operate reliably in temperatures as low as -40°C (-40°F) and maintain high availability even when buried under heavy snow and ice. This Arctic design reflects our commitment to ensuring that our solutions remain dependable, no matter the challenges posed by freezing conditions or harsh winter weather. At Merus Power, we take extra care to deliver reliability and performance, making our systems a perfect fit for demanding winter climates.
