Battery storage for Manufacturing

Battery energy storage for manufacturing facilities. Overcome power constraints and manage peak loads sustainably.

Powering manufacturing sites

Struggling with limited grid capacity or using diesel generators to meet your manufacturing site’s energy demands? Battery energy storage can provide a smarter alternative.

With our proven energy storage technology, manufacturing businesses can optimise energy use, support growth, and reduce their environmental impact – all whilst reducing operational costs.

Perfect for manufacturing sites that:

Experience energy spikes due to high-demand equipment

Plan to add power-hungry machinery to facilities with capped grid capacity

Operate from leased sites where facility upgrades aren't feasible

Are driven by reducing emissions or decarbonising operations

Applications of energy storage:

Overcoming Grid Constraints

With the UK’s electricity network under strain, businesses face challenges in accessing sufficient power, often hindering growth and electrification. Traditional diesel generators, while reliable, are environmentally damaging. Battery energy storage offers a greener, more efficient alternative, reducing the need for costly infrastructure upgrades.

Managing Peak Load Spikes

Manufacturers experience fluctuating energy demands throughout the day, with sharp spikes during peak periods. Energy storage systems manage these surges, smoothing out spikes and avoiding exceeding their Agreed Supply Capacity (ASC).

Enabling Renewable Energy Integration

Renewable energy adoption is growing in manufacturing, however generation can be intermittent. By integrating energy storage with solar or wind power, manufacturers can store clean energy for use during high-demand periods, even at night, ensuring maximum efficiency and sustainability.

Supporting Electrification

The shift to electric processes, heating, and vehicles depends on robust infrastructure. Battery energy storage anchors this transition by providing reliable energy management solutions, paving the way for a fully electrified manufacturing future.
