Our Current Main Products Automotive Batteries: Lead and lead alloys Plastic components for batteries 12
Realization of Industrial Battery Project: Product types Stationary batteries batteries that provide uninterruptible, standby and emergency power supply in the telecommunications, renewable energy (wind, solar energy etc.), industry, energy, medicine, finance and transport sectors Traction batteries batteries aimed at power supply of the on-floor material handling equipment of warehouses, urban rail electric transport, railway carriages, coal and steel industry Block-batteries used as stationary and traction batteries 13
Industrial Energy Park Project Realization Taking into consideration the worldwide trend of the increasing use of alternative energy sources (own wind-parks, photovoltaic and low-grade heat utilization systems) for the purposes of energy supply of industrial enterprises, ISIC WESTA made a decision to create an industrial energy park that will provide the energy supply of the whole industrial complex of enterprises of WESTA corporation. Presently, taking into consideration the substantial growth of the load of Dnipropetrovsk energy supply system, the scheme of external energy supply with the use of own load-center substation transformer (PS 150/6 kv) with the total capacity of 64 MW that is connected to the sub-station of Dneprovskaya energy system( 150 kv -1) was adopted for the electric energy supply of the WESTA industrial complex. 14
