Bidirectional Battery Charger

Datasheet: IBC-30kW-480

Applications:

IPC’s 30kW bidirectional battery charger is ideal for commercial and community-scale energy storage systems. The IBC-30kW-480 provides both charger and inverter functionality for stationary battery systems, eliminating separate charging and inverting systems. Using an external Battery Management System, the IBC-30kW-480 bidirectional battery charger can provide surge capability reducing peak demand charges, smoothing intermittent renewable generator, or providing power for electric vehicle charging.
