Grid-scale energy storage is the backbone of renewable energy—storing excess solar and wind power for when demand peaks—but its efficiency is limited by one component: inductors. These devices regulate current flow, and their performance depends on magnetic cores. SLH Pure Iron, a China manufacturer, is solving this with High Purity Iron Magnetic Cores that minimize energy loss, making storage systems more efficient and cost-effective.
Inductors in grid-scale storage face a unique challenge: they must handle high currents (up to 1,000A) and variable frequencies (50–1,000Hz) without overheating. Traditional magnetic materials like ferrite or silicon steel struggle here: ferrite has high core loss at high frequencies, while silicon steel saturates (loses magnetic ability) at lower currents. SLH’s High Purity Iron Magnetic Cores (99.9% Fe) overcome both issues: at 1kHz, their core loss is just 2 W/kg (vs. 10 W/kg for silicon steel and 50 W/kg for ferrite), and their saturation 磁感应强度 (1.95T) allows them to handle 1,000A without failing.
 
A 50MW storage plant in California tested SLH’s cores against silicon steel alternatives: the SLH-equipped inductors reduced energy loss by 60%, boosting the plant’s charge/discharge efficiency from 88% to 94%. This 6% increase translates to 3MW more usable energy per day—enough to power 20,000 homes during peak hours. Additionally, SLH’s cores are 30% smaller than silicon steel versions, allowing the plant to fit 25% more inductors in the same space, increasing total storage capacity.
 
SLH’s strength as a China manufacturer lies in its ability to scale. With a dedicated magnetic core production line (annual capacity: 15,000 tons) and advanced testing facilities (including high-frequency magnetic loss testers), SLH can meet the growing demand for grid-scale storage materials. Its lead times (7 days for standard orders) and pricing (40% lower than U.S.-made cores) are also critical for storage developers racing to meet renewable energy targets. As the world builds more storage to fight climate change, SLH Pure Iron’s High Purity Iron Magnetic Cores are proving that China’s manufacturing expertise can drive the clean energy transition.
