2.2 SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS.

2.2.1 New Battery and Electrical Equipment Material Requirements for building 498 The Contractor shall Engineer, Furnish, Install and Test (EFI&T) a new 12 module sodium nickel battery system in building 498.

New batteries must meet the following requirements-

• Cycling Capability: 4.500 cycles (80% DOD)

• Battery energy density 100÷120Wh/kg, 150-190Wh/lt

• Shelf life (> 20 years)

• Temperature Immunity (-40 ÷ +60°C)

• No gas emissions

• No flammable materials

• No fire/water flood reaction

• 100% recyclable

• NO pollution materials

• NO gas emissions

• Battery system must be 48 volts and 1200-amp hours of DC power
