With the development of renewable energies, the issue of electricity storage and balancing of supply and demand becomes crucial.
Our smart-load shifting battery is charged during off-peak periods and takes over on the electrical network during peak time or shortages. With a base of 21Million broadband customers worldwide, this product could reduce significantly electrical production at peak time and therefore prevent from turning on coal-fired power plants.
By storing electricity close to the customers, and managing the network load, this battery plays a role in making electricity greener.
