Applications and use cases for the most ecological battery 

Whether you are looking forward to switching to renewable energy generation and storage solutions at home or at your business, the possibilities are many. Discover concrete real-world examples here:

Residential complexes and SMEs

Situation

A small business park with a building with several entrepreneurs. The building already has solar panels but only 30% of the energy produced is effectively used. The rest goes to the power grid.

Solution

Installation of an ES Flow battery

Advantages

  • Increasing 30 to 75% of own consumption of renewable energy production
  • Average return of €65,000 over the life of the battery
  • Average payback period of 11 years for a lifespan of 25 years
  • Independent of energy producers and distributors
  • No rising energy costs
  • Significant environmental benefits
  • No outages due to expansion of electric cars and heat pumps
  • No grid problems by supplying energy to the grid through photovoltaic panel production.

Retail

Situation

Food retailing consumes a lot of energy through the use of various refrigerators and freezers. Consumption is constant both during the day and night.

Solution

Solar panels on the roof of the store combined with a lithium battery in the parking lot and switching to a dynamic energy contract. In this way, the battery is used to buy energy at the cheapest times of the day and this thanks to an automated algorithm and the built-in Energy Management System.

Advantages

  • 70% of the energy used is auto-consumption from a mix of energy coming directly from the solar panels and stored energy from the battery

  • Optimal use of sustainable renewable energy
  • Renewable energy remains constant in price even in the future

  • This investment provides monthly energy cost savings of 35% with a payback within 5 years.

Industry

  • Increase reliability and cost efficiency of renewable energy by storing it when production exceeds consumption
  • Reduce your electricity bills

  • Reduce your carbon footprint
  • Strive for energy independence, which allows you to avoid fluctuations in energy costs

  • Use advanced software to optimize your consumption.

E-mobility

  • Increase your wealth
  • Charge multiple cars simultaneously
  • You can charge your battery through renewable energy production or at night when the tariff is late.

Telecom & data centers

Batteries are essential for data integrity and continuity of communications and transmissions. They can be used to collect energy from traditional power grids or renewable sources; this energy can be stored until a power outage occurs, or it can be used to control utility costs by storing energy for use during peak usage times, when rates are higher.

Power infrastructure

Vanadium redox flow batteries can support the electricity grid by storing energy at times of low demand and releasing it when demand is high. This helps equalize the peaks and troughs in electricity demand, making the grid more efficient and reliable. In addition, it can help integrate renewable energy sources by compensating for the variability of their production, creating a more stable power supply.

Energy Trade

A vanadium redox flow battery can play a significant role in energy trading due to its ability to store energy when demand is low and release it when demand is high. This allows the system to store energy when prices are low and sell it when prices are high, making it possible to take advantage of market differences and increase profitability. This can contribute to a more efficient use of energy resources and a more dynamic energy market.
