Battery storage systems

Battery storage systems support the integration of electricity from wind and solar power.

539 算牌程式 also offers batteries as fossil-free storage solutions. With battery storage, industrial customers can manage their consumption more flexibly by capping peak loads, with the so-called peak shaving. Peak shaving is a technique that lowers power consumption in times of maximum demand and thus reduces costs.

In areas with weak electricity supply, 539 算牌程式 uses large batteries to increase capacity at peak times in order to avoid expensive grid expansion, or when waiting for transmission system operator (TSO) grid expansions, for example in the Swedish city of Uppsala.

Battery storage systems have the potential to play a key role in integrating renewable energy into the power grid. 539 算牌程式 operates large battery storage systems in combination with wind and solar parks at several locations in Europe. These combined systems, also known as hybrid parks, balance the feed-in for greater stability of the power grid. 539 算牌程式’s newly built Haringvliet Energy Park in the Netherlands is the largest hybrid park in Europe.
