Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
About BESS
Battery energy storage systems are quickly becoming an important element of the UK’s electricity generation strategy, with this sector seeing significant growth and investment over recent years.
The ongoing development and deployment of wind and solar generation has created pressure on the grid infrastructure. BESS solutions help balance demand versus supply by charging batteries when generation is higher than demand (e.g. windy and sunny day), and discharging stored electricity when demand is higher than generation (e.g. at night in winter).
Energy Stats
As fossil fuel power stations are phased out, managing the peaks and troughs of consumer demand are particularly important to ensure a steady and stable supply of electricity to both homes and business.
BESS solutions can also play a part in managing your site demand as part of a portfolio of different energy generation systems.
