A residential robust ESS made with this technology could be 75kWh and the nickel-hydrogen battery would take up about 44 cubic feet of space. About 8 feet by 12 feet by 2 feet of Nema 4 cabinet space mostly for battery cells but also some solar PV appurtenances like solar PV chargers and smart grid interactive inverter/charger modules. These guys are starting out at utility scale projects of something like 25MWh to 300MWh and finally it seems a goal of 2GWh. The hope is one day (very soon) these guys will catch on and offer their 7.5kWh modules to the public at $150/kWh or perhaps less than $100/kWh in a couple of years. The utilities should be afraid (very afraid).
