Belinus

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything B2B customers and installers need to know about Belinus graphene supercapacitor energy storage systems.

What storage capacity options are available?

Belinus commercial units are available in modular configurations from 5 kWh up to 500 kWh per installation. Systems can be scaled further by linking multiple units. Your account manager will recommend the optimal capacity based on your site's load profile and energy goals.

What is the maximum charge and discharge rate?

Our graphene supercapacitor systems support high C-rates with continuous discharge up to 3C and peak discharge up to 5C for short bursts. Charge rates are similarly high, enabling very rapid energy absorption from solar or grid sources. Full technical datasheets are available upon request.

How many charge cycles can the system handle?

Belinus systems are rated for 50,000+ full charge-discharge cycles with minimal capacity degradation. In practical terms, this equates to decades of daily cycling — far exceeding the 3,000–6,000 cycles typical of lithium-ion batteries. Our warranty reflects this longevity.

What are the physical dimensions of a standard unit?

A single 25 kWh module measures approximately 600 x 800 x 1,200 mm and weighs 180 kg. The compact form factor allows for wall-mounted or floor-standing installation. Multi-module racks are available for larger installations. Full dimensional drawings are provided during the quoting process.

What certifications do Belinus systems carry?

All systems are CE certified and compliant with IEC 61000 (EMC), IEC 62133 (safety), and the EU Battery Regulation. We also hold VDE-AR-E 2510 certification for stationary energy storage. Product-specific declarations of conformity are available for each model.

Can the system connect to the electricity grid?

Yes. Belinus systems include an integrated hybrid inverter compatible with standard three-phase grid connections (400V, 50Hz). They support grid-tied, off-grid, and hybrid operating modes. Grid connection parameters can be configured to meet local DNO requirements across European markets.

Does Belinus offer an installer partnership programme?

Yes, our Certified Installer Programme provides training, technical documentation, marketing support, and competitive margin structures. Installers receive dedicated account management and priority access to new product launches. Apply through our contact page or speak to your regional sales representative.

Do installers need special accreditation to fit Belinus systems?

Installers must complete our one-day certification course, which covers system design, installation, commissioning, and safety protocols. A valid electrical installation qualification is required. Once certified, installers are listed on our official partner directory and receive ongoing technical support.

What does the warranty cover and how long does it last?

The standard Belinus commercial warranty covers 20 years or 50,000 cycles (whichever comes first). It includes capacity retention above 80%, all manufacturing defects, and inverter electronics. Extended warranty options up to 35 years are available for large-scale installations. Full terms are provided in the commercial agreement.

Is there an API for system integration and monitoring?

Yes. Belinus provides a RESTful API and Modbus TCP interface for real-time data access and system control. The API supports charge/discharge scheduling, state-of-charge queries, historical data export, and alarm management. SDKs are available for Python, Node.js, and .NET. API documentation is shared with certified integrators.

Can I monitor my system remotely?

Every Belinus unit ships with built-in cellular and Wi-Fi connectivity. The Belinus EMS app provides real-time dashboards, performance analytics, automated alerts, and remote firmware updates. Multi-site management is supported for portfolio operators. Access is available via web browser and native mobile apps for iOS and Android.

Is my data handled in compliance with GDPR?

Absolutely. All monitoring data is processed and stored within the EU on ISO 27001-certified infrastructure. We are fully GDPR compliant and maintain a transparent data processing agreement. Customers retain full ownership of their operational data and can request data export or deletion at any time.

What is the typical delivery timeline?

Standard configurations are dispatched within 4–6 weeks of order confirmation. Custom or large-scale orders typically require 8–12 weeks. Shipping is arranged via our logistics partners with full tracking. Installation scheduling is coordinated with your certified installer upon delivery confirmation.

How does pricing work?

Pricing is based on system capacity, configuration, and order volume. We offer outright purchase, leasing, and Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) models to match different budget structures. Volume discounts are available for multi-site deployments. Contact our sales team for a tailored commercial proposal.

Is the system insurable?

Yes. Belinus systems are eligible for coverage under standard commercial property and business interruption policies from major European insurers. Our zero-thermal-runaway design significantly simplifies the underwriting process compared to lithium-ion installations. We can provide technical documentation to support your insurance application.
