What to Include in a Battery Container RFQ

Define the operating case

State the required energy, power, duration, grid conditions, ambient range, altitude, and cycling profile. Suppliers cannot produce comparable offers without the same design basis.

Request a complete scope matrix

Clarify cells, racks, BMS, PCS, EMS, HVAC, fire suppression, transformer, switchgear, commissioning, spares, and training. Ask vendors to mark every line as included, excluded, or optional.

Make commercial offers comparable

Use one Incoterm, destination, warranty definition, currency, and delivery window. Request price validity and a milestone payment proposal.
