Polarium, a leading energy storage developer, inaugurates a new technology center, Polarium X, in Tomteboda. Polarium X includes state-of-the-art technical labs and prototype production for developing and testing energy storage and optimisation solutions.

Polarium is a leading energy storage developer, that makes energy storage and optimisation solutions built on lithium-ion battery technology for businesses within telecom, commercial and industrial facilities across the world. Polarium maximises value creation for our customers through our cutting-edge technology and a three-fold product offering of battery modules, battery energy storage systems and energy optimisation systems as well as associated services. Our easily adaptable modular battery technology enables us to be in the forefront of developing state-of-the-art sustainable energy storage and optimisation solutions.

The newly inaugurated technology center, Polarium X, includes state-of-the-art technical labs and prototype production for development of lithium-ion energy storage and optimisation solutions including;

Development of electronics, power switching and software

• Development of large BESS (battery energy storage systems)
• Verification and validation of modules, products and systems

Qualification testing

• Labs for cell testing and qualification
• Equipment for module, product, and system qualification.

The need for energy storage is global, as highlighted by Polarium’s customer base across the world from Ghana to Svalbard. The ability to set up and run large energy storage systems and create local electrical grids simulated to the environment the systems will be deployed in is crucial - which is made possible at Polarium X’s energy storage systems lab. Guaranteeing safe, smart, and sustainable energy storage solutions is the DNA Polarium is founded on.

In the electronics and software lab, the BMS (Battery Monitoring System) electronics and software is developed and set through rigorous test programs to ensure quality and safety of the products. The qualification test lab contains equipment to do cell and battery testing, including environmental chambers, where we can run through performance testing at temperatures from -40 to + 60 degrees.

Sustainable energy storage and optimisation solutions for today – and tomorrow

“Polarium was founded in 2015 on the conviction that safe, smart and sustainable energy storage solutions will be key to empower the transition to a truly, sustainable energy future. Polarium X will enable us to speed up that transition in meeting growing customer demands for our products and ensure that we continue to be in the forefront of developing state-of-the-art sustainable energy storage and optimisation solutions for today – and tomorrow," says Carl-Erik Lagercrantz, chairman of Polarium.
