Specialist Small Craft supplies Kontra R450CC to Southampton lifeboat service
Wiltshire-based Specialist Small Craft has supplied a Kontra R450CC rescue boat to the newly formed Southampton Independent Lifeboat service.
The batteries are particularly suitable for off-grid energy applications such as remote/hybrid sites, grid scale energy storage, communications, cycling, renewables, marine and electric vehicles where backup power is required and uptime is essential.
Stuart James, Managing Director of DC Battery Technologies, said: ‘Renewable energy is one of the sectors that is really embracing new battery technology and these AES solutions are specifically designed for use in solar, renewable, wind and hybrid energy applications. With their rapid charging and PSoC functionality, organisations in the renewable energy sector can rely on AES for backup power solutions to maximise uptime and extend cycle life.’
