Everything below comes from what Envision Energy publishes about the Gen 8 Scalable Platform: the datasheet, the product page and press releases. Where a figure is not published, the field says so — we do not estimate.
Variants
Energy figures are nominal (beginning of life) as published by the manufacturer. One model, several duration options — the same enclosure with different power ratings.

Key facts
- 10-ft modular DC units on 750+ Ah cells, each under 29 t; 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 MWh (and larger) configurations per unit, aimed at ≥4-hour applications (Tech Day Beijing, 2025-10-27)
- Envision AESC site lists the module as 4 MWh each (<29 t) and the platform as 6–12 MWh 'flexible for 4–8 hour applications', ≤58 dB(A)
- Claimed 26 % smaller footprint and 12 % lower auxiliary power for 4-hour systems vs 5 MWh baseline; -30 °C to +55 °C, IP55, C5
- Gen 8 AC: TwinSkid MV System 10 MVA (four parallel 2.5 MW PCS, ≤55 dB(A))
- Contracted for 4-hour projects in Germany (ju:niz Energy 140.6 MWh; Elements Green Stadorf 1,600 MWh, 2026) — deliveries not yet reported; no datasheet, voltage, RTE or cycle life published
What Envision Energy does not publish for this model
These fields are empty because no public datasheet or release states them. That is information too: ask for these numbers before you shortlist.

Price signal
$70–95/kWh
Estimate against Chinese DC-block benchmarks (H1 2026 tender averages $75–84/kWh; FOB for Europe $71–89/kWh) — no published model price. Record density: 8 MWh in a 20-ft container (541 kWh/m²) on AESC 700Ah+ cells, 96% RTE. Ex-works China, DC block without PCS; export turnkey costs more as China's export VAT rebate fell 13%→6% in April 2026 (abolished in 2027).
