This week, Aggreko has launched two new mid-size commercial Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
The batteries, available in 500 KW and 250 KW, can be operated in island mode, as part of a hybrid solution with a generator, or in parallel with additional BESS. According to the company, they deliver zero CO2 emissions, don’t produce noise, and don’t require maintenance.
“Incorporating batteries can be a significant step toward sustainability for any company. Additionally, battery-based solutions can provide reliable emission-free energy for specific processes while reducing fuel costs,” said Adam Read, Head of Sales – Middle East, Aggreko, who also noted that they can be used as a standalone power source or in combination with mobile solar panels, wind or generators.
In a statement, the company said that the ready-to-install BESS units enable the management of variable loads by storing excess energy for later and include batteries, inverter, HVAC, fire protection and other required components.
Both come with an ECO controller that provides control and monitoring for all batteries and power electronics integrated into the battery pack.
“To meet the constantly evolving energy demands of businesses, our BESS units are made scalable to match changing needs. A single unit can be easily combined into an integrated energy storage system to deliver the power and energy capacity required for any business,” added Read.
