Battery storage technology has rapidly advanced in recent years, and it is now a viable option for solar farms looking to improve energy efficiency and reliability.
The private sector has started to embrace battery storage technology to enhance their solar farm operations.
The largest lithium-ion battery storage projects can reach a capacity of 150 megawatts, helping to stabilize the grid and provide reliable energy during peak periods.
Battery storage benefits:
Reduce operating costs
reducing the need to draw energy from the grid during peak periods. This can help solar farms avoid costly demand charges and reduce their overall energy costs.
Improve energy efficiency
storing excess energy generated during periods of high solar output. This stored energy can be used during periods of low solar output, reducing the need to draw energy from the grid.
Enhanced energy reliability
reliable energy source during power outages or grid failures. By storing energy on-site, solar farms can continue to operate even when the grid is down.
Environmental sustainability
Battery storage can help solar farms reduce their carbon footprint and achieve their sustainability goals. By storing excess energy, solar farms can avoid the need to draw energy from fossil fuel sources, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution.
