As the world transitions to renewable energy, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) are helping meet the growing demand for reliable, yet decentralised power on a grid scale.
These systems gather surplus energy from solar and wind sources, storing it in batteries for later discharge. This process helps stabilise the grid by ensuring a steady power supply and mitigating the variability associated with renewables. Excess daytime electricity from solar farms, for instance, can be stored at a BESS facility for use overnight.
