  • Publication number: 20230361410
    Abstract: A battery system comprising an enclosure having a first end, a second end and a housing extending between the first end and the second end to define a space within the enclosure. At least one opening defined by the first end of the enclosure such that the at least one opening accommodates a plurality of removable power modules. A plurality of input/output connectors are positioned on the enclosure to couple DC and AC power to and from the enclosure. A circuit board is positioned in the enclosure to distribute the AC and DC power between the plurality of input/output connectors and the removeable power modules. Each removeable power module is a standalone power module that forms an AC and/or DC power source separate from the enclosure or, alternatively, when coupled to the enclosure, forms a multiple power module battery system.
