Independent Structural and Thermal Verification for Battery Storage Project (UK)

Client Context
A project sponsor required independent verification to satisfy lender and insurer technical due diligence for a large containerised battery system.

Challenge
OEM data focused on nominal performance and warranty limits, but independent confirmation of structural and thermal margins was required under abnormal and degraded operating conditions.

What we did
Equitus delivered independent verification including:

• Structural assessment of battery container systems

• Thermal modelling under fault and high-ambient conditions

• Review of EPC safety factors and compliance claims

Outcome

• Provided lender-grade technical verification reports

• Addressed insurer concerns regarding thermal runaway propagation

• Reduced conditions precedent to financial close

Value to Asset Owner
Accelerated financing with fewer technical reservations.
