Reduxi Controller as an BESS controller and EMS
Intelligent BESS Management and Comprehensive EMS in One
Unlock a new level of integration and control with the Reduxi Industrial controller. Beyond its powerful Energy Management System (EMS) capabilities, the Reduxi Industrial controller can also serve as the crucial coordinating link for your Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). It achieves this by expertly managing the communication and operational synergy between a battery’s own critical Battery Management System (BMS) and your chosen Power Conversion System (PCS).
Think of it this way: the battery’s BMS is the core intelligence safeguarding the battery, monitoring its health, state of charge, and operational limits. The Reduxi Industrial controller interfaces with this BMS, taking its vital data and directives, and then intelligently commands the PCS. This is similar to how dedicated ESS controllers provide sophisticated management of the internal operations of an energy storage system. The Reduxi Industrial controller effectively fulfills this crucial role, ensuring the battery and PCS work together harmoniously for efficient charging, discharging, and overall BESS performance.
The Reduxi Advantage: Unified BESS Control and Holistic Energy Management
What sets the Reduxi Industrial controller apart is its unique ability to combine this detailed BESS coordination (BMS to PCS) with its broader function as a comprehensive Energy Management System (EMS).
This means the Reduxi Industrial controller not only ensures your battery (via its BMS) and PCS operate optimally as a cohesive BESS unit, but it also seamlessly integrates and intelligently manages this BESS in conjunction with all your other energy assets.
By acting as both the precise ESS coordinator (interfacing between the battery’s BMS and the PCS) and the overarching EMS, the Reduxi Industrial controller provides a streamlined and powerful solution. It enables truly holistic energy optimization, ensuring that your self-generated power, stored energy, and consumption are managed in the most efficient and cost-effective way across your entire ecosystem. This integrated approach simplifies system architecture while maximizing your energy independence and savings.
Overview of Reduxi Industrial controller functions:
Integration BMS to PCS
Acts as a direct communication link between the battery management system (BMS) and power conversion systems (PCS/inverters), ensuring synchronized operation.
Supports different communication layers like Modbus TCP, Mudbus RTU, based on proprietary or SunSpec protocol where integrating different BMS manufacturer to different PCS manufacturer (e.g., KACO, Sinexcell, Kehua, CATL, Sineng, etc.).
Dynamically adjusts charge/discharge cycles based on real-time grid conditions, SPOT market (Day-Ahead, Intra-Day), balancing services, measuring battery health (SOC, temperature, etc.).
Multi-Asset EMS Capabilities
Coordinates BESS + solar + EV chargers in a single platform:
• Prioritizes solar self-consumption while managing battery cycles.
• Schedules EV charging during low-tariff periods using surplus solar or stored energy.
• Balances grid imports/exports based on market prices and grid constraints.
Used in commercial or industrial scale systems, or utility-scale systems.
BESS Control & Optimization
Your Enables bidirectional communication between BMS and PCS to enable charging and discharging of ESS.
Monitors BMS data (state of charge/health, voltages, currents, energy, etc.).
Implements peak shaving, load shifting, and frequency regulation without third-party software. Goes Here
