MUNICH, June 19, 2024 /CNW/ -- Rolls-Royce Power Systems (RRPS) and CATL are excited to announce a strategic cooperation that will bring the TENER product line to the EU and UK markets. The groundbreaking product is designed with safety in mind and, improvement of service life, efficiency, and availability. Depending on the product line and the customer use case, up to 5 years of no degradation can be expected from the new TENER product. RRPS has started to offer TENER products as part of their mtu EnergyPack QG solution. Together, the two companies have built a close relationship on the integration of the TENER products into fully fledged EPC-turnkey projects with all-inclusive service maintenance.

The fully integrated solution will allow the Customer to perform the latest available grid and trading services in the rapidly modernizing grids of the UK and EU.

The partnership extends into the innovation of intelligent products such as RRPS´s smart mtu EnergetIQ automation solution and its digital platform mtu Go! with CATL´s intelligent diagnostics platform and BMS. The partnerships strengthen the ability of both companies to deliver large-scale and complex projects. Both companies have successfully delivered various projects in the EU with the EnerOne product line and have multiple projects contracted in the EU for the EnerC+ product line.

Rolls-Royce Limited was a renowned British car and, from 1914 on, aero-engine manufacturing company founded by Charles Stewart Rolls and Henry Royce on 15 March 1906 as the result of a partnership formed in 1904.

In 1971, Rolls-Royce was crippled by the development of the advanced RB211 jet engine, resulting in the nationalisation of the company as Rolls-Royce (1971) Limited. In 1973, the car division was separated from the parent company as Rolls-Royce Motors. Rolls-Royce (1971) Limited continued as a nationalised company until it was privatised in 1987 as Rolls-Royce plc.
