Documentation and example files for Fluxara, the utility-scale battery energy storage (BESS) design app for Windows and macOS.
Fluxara is a desktop application for designing utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS). It sizes a project to a target MWh and lays it out on your real site, producing container counts, inverter pairings, augmentation schedules, access roads, and feeders in minutes instead of weeks.
This repository holds public documentation and illustrative example files. The Fluxara desktop application itself is proprietary and is not in this repository. See NOTICE.md.
- Sizing engine: sizes AC- and DC-coupled batteries of any chemistry to a target MWh, with separate or bundled auxiliary power accounting. Outputs container counts, inverter pairings, and augmentation schedules.
- Layout engine: multi-area site layouts with automatic road generation, equipment placement, per-cluster spacing, and an aerial underlay. Block size, spacing, and grouping are configurable.
- Augmentation: models a 20-year augmentation schedule that holds usable energy flat as the batteries decay.
- Weather and aux: pulls 20 years of climate data and derives TMY P50 and ERYh P90 profiles per site.
- Library and files: OEM battery, inverter, loss-profile, and layout templates; import as .bfx, bundle a whole project into one portable .bfp file.
Utility-scale storage and solar-plus-storage developers, IPPs, and EPC and engineering firms.
