Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about container energy storage solutions

Liquid cooling keeps battery modules at optimal temperature, extending lifespan, increasing safety, and supporting higher continuous power compared to air-cooled or passive containers. This is essential for Australian climate conditions.

Yes. Modular architecture and parallel design allow seamless expansion as storage needs grow or system requirements change. You can start with one container and add more as needed.

All Foton containers are IP55/IP65 rated, robust against dust, rain, heat, cold, and accidental impact. Perfect for mining, rural, coastal, or urban sites across Australia.

Every system meets AS/IEC standards, Clean Energy Council, AEMO, and insurance requirements with integrated fire protection, surge protection, and automated diagnostics.

Remote cloud dashboards, predictive maintenance scheduling, and on-site service by certified teams. Warranties cover product, performance, and major components.

Foton's engineering consultancy models load profiles, site grid conditions, renewable generation, and future expansion to provide clear recommendations tailored to your project.
