What is a battery energy storage system (BESS)?
A battery energy storage system (BESS) is technology that stores electrical energy in batteries for later use. It helps balance the supply and demand of electricity, supporting the stability of the electrical grid.
How does battery energy storage support the renewable energy transition?
Battery energy storage systems allow excess energy generated from renewable sources to be stored and used when needed. This enhances the efficiency of clean energy systems, which are less predictable than traditional energy sources, and reduces our reliance on fossil fuels.
How does a BESS generate revenue?
A well-optimised BESS can generate revenue through multiple streams, including energy arbitrage, frequency regulation, and participation in capacity markets. Our energy trading and Virtual Power Plant (VPP) solutions help maximise these financial opportunities.
How long do battery storage systems last?
The lifespan of a BESS depends on the technology used, operational conditions, and maintenance. Most lithium-ion battery systems have a lifespan of 10-15 years, with proper monitoring and care extending their efficiency over time.
Can BESS be integrated with existing energy infrastructure?
Yes, our BESS solutions are designed to integrate seamlessly with existing power infrastructure, whether for commercial, industrial, or utility-scale applications. We customise each system to fit the specific needs of our clients.
Can I expand my BESS later if my energy needs grow?
Yes, it’s usually possible to expand your battery storage system down the line – but it depends on how much space and capacity was planned from the start. If there’s enough room at your site, adding more batteries is straightforward.
That said, some parts of the system, like the PCS (power conversion system) or transformer, might limit how much you can expand. To make future upgrades easier, it’s a good idea to plan for potential expansion during the design and engineering phase. Otherwise, upgrades later might require replacing key components like the transformer.
