(Energy Toolbase, 5.Jan.2023) — Energy Toolbase has deployed its Acumen EMS™ controls software on an energy storage system with Sunshine, a Costa Rica-based solar development company. Sunshine installed the BYD Chess unit integrated with Acumen EMS for Laboratorios Calox, a pharmaceutical facility in San José, Costa Rica. This commercial project is Energy Toolbase’s first deployment in Central America.
Sited with a BYD Chess unit, the Acumen EMS-operated system will reduce the host customer’s utility bill through demand charge management and time-of-use energy arbitrage. The project will increase savings and improve value capture, with no charging restrictions or a need for a backup power grid, enabling maximum efficiency. Sunshine and the host customer will have complete visibility into the energy storage system’s operation with the ETB Monitor platform, which allows the customer to analyze system performance in real time and oversee bill savings, customize alerts, override events, schedule dispatch commands, and more.
Sunshine had been searching for a turnkey energy storage solution that would clear customs and be delivered and commissioned in a timely fashion. BYD Panama procured Acumen EMS from Energy Toolbase to meet the customer’s needs and maximize the value of its asset through demand charge management and TOU arbitrage. Energy Toolbase is optimistic about deploying more projects in Central America and exploring new markets internationally to support developers in their solar and storage needs. In 2021, Energy Toolbase was North America’s largest BYD Chess system reseller.
“For Sunshine, it is extremely important to support clean renewable energy generation initiatives, as they allow for the reduction of our carbon footprint,” said Eduardo Kopper, President of Sunshine. “This is not a normal installation of solar panels; we are also helping the country’s energy matrix. It will have a peak power of 151 kWp, equivalent to the energy consumption of 68 homes, and a battery system with a capacity of 266 kWh, making this system one of the largest of its kind in Costa Rica,” added Kopper.
“Energy Toolbase is excited to partner with Sunshine to deploy our first storage projects in Costa Rica,” said Scott D’Ambrosio, Vice President of Sales at Energy Toolbase. “We’re confident this will open the doors to bringing more storage into Central America using our Acumen EMS controls.”

Generics can be produced using a different manufacturing process, this can affect both the amount and composition of impurities,” he explained.
