PCS, BMS & EMS
Factory process & delivery review
Understand the control layer of an energy system: power conversion, battery supervision, site dispatch, communication interfaces and the tests that connect those parts.
Factory profile in progress.
We are building this factory profile with production information, site imagery and supporting documents. Explore the sections below to see what is coming; existing product and manufacturing references continue further down this page.

New factory content will be added as it becomes available. Planned sections do not establish production figures, stock availability or completed acceptance-test results.
Connect the product to its manufacturing scope.
The existing BESS and microgrid page describes PCS and control integration. This route separates component suppliers from the entity assembling and commissioning the complete system. Read the published reference →
Follow the route from requirements to handover.
These checkpoints organize a customer review. The order-specific manufacturing and test plan defines the work and acceptance criteria.
Agree grid-connected, backup or islanded requirements and which device manages each control function.
Confirm PCS, battery BMS and EMS models, supported protocols and supplier ownership of each product.
Discuss protection settings, communication mapping, access permissions, setpoints and firmware versions.
Agree checks for alarms, interlocks, dispatch commands and interaction with generation or the grid.
Confirm parameter records, operating guidance, remote-support boundaries and change-management responsibilities.
Know what evidence to ask for.
Bring the selected equipment and operating requirements to the discussion. Agree the relevant documents, confidentiality, witness points and handover scope with the project team.
- Control architecture and responsibility matrix
- Selected models and communication-interface schedule
- Protection and operating-mode definitions
- Functional and interface test plan
- Configuration, access and software-support handover
Questions before a factory review.
Are PCS, BMS and EMS the same thing?
No. PCS converts electrical power; the battery BMS supervises battery operation and protection; the EMS coordinates energy dispatch at system or site level. The actual division of functions depends on the selected design.
Does this route identify a CIMC-owned factory for every controller?
No. Component manufacture, software supply and system integration may involve different entities. The project review should identify the actual suppliers and their responsibilities before making factory or ownership claims.
Connect this route with the other factory capabilities.
Reference review: 4 October 2026. Published references identify the relevant entity; the project team confirms the contracted suppliers and scope.
