When your small commercial facility demands complete energy storage without complexity, the CICS-40 delivers 40.96 kWh of storage with integrated 30kW inverter, intelligent climate control, and comprehensive safety systems in a single turnkey cabinet.
Empower IT brings you all-in-one commercial storage engineered for simplicity:
Our all-in-one energy storage solution eliminates the complexity of component sourcing and on-site integration by providing a fully pre-configured, turnkey system. At its core is a 30kW three-phase inverter capable of 208V or 480V output, paired with integrated AC and DC power distribution for rapid “plug-and-play” site connection. The system is engineered for maximum safety and performance, featuring an intelligent air conditioning system to maintain ideal battery temperatures alongside a comprehensive fire protection suite that includes smoke and explosive gas detection and automatic aerosol suppression at both the module and cabinet levels.
This is the engine that powers remote gold mines in Alaska, emergency facilities for major cities, 100MW utility plants in the Middle East, and critical infrastructure across six continents. Over 1,000 MW of installed Progen capacity worldwide proves what happens when American engineering meets real-world demands.
Our integrated active air conditioning system is engineered to maintain battery temperatures within the optimal range of 20–25°C, a critical factor for maximizing cycle life and preventing the accelerated degradation caused by thermal stress. Featuring an optimized air duct design, the system ensures uniform airflow distribution across all modules, eliminating dangerous hot spots that can lead to cell inconsistency. This intelligent climate control dynamically adjusts to external conditions, enabling reliable, constant-temperature operation in diverse commercial environments—from extreme heat to freezing cold—without sacrificing performance or safety.
Our multi-layer fire protection architecture is specifically designed to exceed the rigorous safety demands of commercial and industrial sectors. This “defense-in-depth” strategy begins with UL 9540A-certified testing, which validates the system’s ability to prevent thermal runaway propagation between cells and modules. To address fires at their earliest stages, we integrate highly sensitive smoke and temperature monitoring that triggers an automatic aerosol fire suppression system—first within the individual battery modules, followed by a secondary whole-cabinet backup. This dual-layer approach ensures that any thermal event is chemically neutralized at the source, preventing escalation and safeguarding the entire facility.
The HV51100 series utilizes a high-voltage architecture to deliver superior efficiency and power for demanding commercial environments. By connecting eight 5.12 kWh modules in series, the system achieves a 409.6V nominal DC voltage, which reduces current flow and minimizes heat loss in wiring compared to traditional low-voltage systems. Built with the industry’s safest Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) chemistry, these modules are rated for an exceptional 6,500+ cycle life, providing over 17 years of daily operation even when discharged to 70% of original capacity. With a robust 100A charge/discharge capability, this configuration ensures the high power density required to support heavy industrial motors, specialized medical equipment, and large-scale HVAC loads.
