Battery Storage

Battery storage systems capture and store excess solar energy generated during peak sunlight hours so it can be used later—at night, during cloudy periods, or when energy demand is high. This stored energy can power a facility directly or supplement the grid when needed, ensuring a reliable and consistent energy supply.

For businesses, battery storage provides several key advantages beyond simple backup power. It allows companies to reduce or eliminate costly demand charges by discharging stored energy during periods of peak electricity use, flattening their load profile and lowering utility bills. In the event of an outage, battery systems can automatically provide backup power, keeping critical operations running without interruption.

When paired with solar, battery storage creates a more resilient and self-sufficient energy system. Companies gain the ability to use clean, renewable power around the clock, improve energy independence, and better manage their overall energy costs—while contributing to sustainability goals and reducing strain on the local grid.
