Lithium-Ion Batteries
The most common choice for utility-scale projects due to their efficiency, safety, and cost-effectiveness
Solar Energy Storage
Reliable Power, Anytime
As solar energy becomes a cornerstone of clean power generation, energy storage is now essential for maximizing its value and reliability. Solar-plus- storage systems pair large solar farms with advanced battery solutions, enabling excess energy generated during the day to be stored and dispatched Confidential - Company Proprietary when needed—such as at night, during cloudy periods, or when grid demand peaks.
Energy Storage
Energy storage is the process of capturing energy produced at one time for use at a later time. It helps balance supply and demand, ensuring reliable power even when generation from sources like solar or wind is variable. Storage can take many forms, including batteries (electrochemical), pumped hydro (mechanical), thermal systems, and more.
Key Benefits of Solar Energy Storage for Large Projects
-
Grid Reliability
Storage systems stabilize the grid by balancing supply and demand, reducing the need for backup fossil fuel plants, and providing backup power during outages.
-
Maximized Clean Energy Use
By storing surplus solar energy, these systems ensure that clean power is available even when the sun isn’t shining.
-
Cost Efficiency
Storage allows operators to optimize energy dispatch, participate in energy markets, and reduce curtailment losses, improving project returns.
-
Scalable Solutions
Modern battery energy storage systems (BESS) can be tailored for projects from a few megawatts to hundreds of megawatts, supporting everything from critical infrastructure to national grids.
-
Environmental Impact
By enabling more efficient use of renewable energy, storage systems help cut greenhouse gas emissions, improve air quality, and support healthier communities.
