LG Energy Solution RESU AC-Coupled Storage for Hospital Backup in China

Powering Critical Healthcare Infrastructure with Smart Energy Solutions
When a Beijing hospital's emergency room lights stayed on during a city-wide blackout last winter, few realized the silent guardian responsible - LG Energy Solution's RESU AC-Coupled Storage system. This incident highlights how advanced battery technology is redefining healthcare infrastructure resilience in China.
Why Hospitals Need Advanced Energy Storage
- Life-support systems dependency: 87% of ICU equipment requires uninterrupted power
- Vaccine storage demands: COVID-19 mRNA vaccines require -70°C refrigeration
- Emergency response capacity: Operating theaters consume 3-5x normal power during crises
