Why It's Important
Given that renewable energy is an intermittent energy source, you may be looking for ways to increase reliability and address peaking power needs within your energy strategy. NextEra Energy Services is helping meet those needs through energy storage technology.
While there are many energy storage technologies, batteries provide a promising way to store electrical energy so it can be available to meet demand whenever needed. Battery storage fills in the gaps resulting from intermittent resources like wind and solar generation. That means facility managers can more easily bring on and off renewable energy, reducing the need for load balancing services and rapid generation ramping.
The Benefits of Battery Storage
Batteries store excess energy captured during peaking times of renewable energy generation, allowing your facility to use that energy at a later date rather than brown power from the grid – getting you closer to carbon neutrality.
Amplifies Renewables
Energy storage multiplies the impact of any renewable power generation technology, allowing your business to store your excess wind and solar power for later use.
Peak Shaving
The variability in solar and wind generation will give you the ability to take advantage of low-cost power produced during low demand hours and use that power when you need it most.
