Eco Stor battery project to use Amperecloud monitoring platform

The battery storage facility in Schuby, developed by Eco Stor, is one of the largest projects of its kind in Germany and is scheduled to go online in fall 2026. It will be equipped with Amperecloud’s monitoring solution, which is designed to prevent downtime and monitor parameters relevant to performance guarantees.

German battery storage developer Eco Stor will equip its 103 MW/238 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Schuby, Schleswig-Holstein, with Amperecloud’s monitoring platform ahead of its planned commissioning this autumn.

Eco Stor has reached several milestones in recent months for the Schuby project, including securing financing and signing a tolling agreement with Alpiq. The company plans to bring the battery system online this autumn.

Amperecloud and Eco Stor told pv magazine that the project will use the Amperecloud Platform for monitoring, while operational control of the BESS will remain within Eco Stor’s proprietary software environment. The companies said the platform is intended to maximize system availability, support safety requirements, and provide scalable, vendor-independent data analysis.

The companies said a key objective of the partnership is to identify critical issues within large volumes of operational data and continuously monitor warranty-relevant parameters. The monitoring system is also designed to detect faults and downtime that could affect project revenues and overall asset economics.

Amperecloud said the platform uses a direct cloud-to-cloud connection to centralize operational data from commissioning onward in a standardized structure, allowing even very short-duration events to be identified. The system includes live monitoring, automated alerts, reporting functions, and integrated maintenance management.

Opinion & Analysis

Falling li-ion battery prices mirror solar photovoltaics trends: Is there a role for second-life batteries before recycling? Lithium-ion batteries are everywhere, powering everything from consumer electronics to electric vehicles, residential PV storage systems, and, more recently, mitigating curtailment in large-scale wind and solar power plants. EVs are driving large-scale demand for Li-ion batteries which will result in substantial volumes of spent batteries in the near future. This scenario highlights the potential for repurposing EV batteries for second-life stationary applications, which could maximise their value before recycling. However, to fully realise this opportunity, several economic, technical, and regulatory challenges must be addressed and resolved.
