Unlock the Benefits of a Clean Flexible Energy Supply

By December 2, 2020December 11th, 2020No Comments

For more than a decade, electrical grids were built on the assumption that generated electricity needs to be distributed and used right away because storing energy wasn’t feasible economically. Needless to say, opinions about power generation have changed drastically over the last few years.

As renewable energy generation becomes more popular globally, its supply inconsistency and variability is starting to affect the electrical systems and energy storage is becoming a fundamental element. Energy storage can help to even out dips and spikes in solar resource availability by making it available at the time of peak demand and not only when generated.

There is no visible threshold level of solar energy supply to keep it constant. But grid system operators start investing in back up storage when 15% of their overall supply is generated through solar or other renewable energy sources.

In the last ten years, battery backup manufacturers have been adamant to perfect energy storage technology. The main goal is to make it more robust to harsh environments, extend its lifespan, evolve management systems and to make it more affordable.

Nupower expects the energy storage technology industry to grow exponentially in the next few years. We are confident that big things are coming and we have lofty goals for formulating new markets for clean energy.
