Energy Storage Solutions – We’re powering Commerce

SolarXgen’s ESS Division offers a broad range of lithium ion battery systems, from kilowatt-hour sized systems for residential use to multi-megawatt-hour class systems for the utility industry.

Energy Storage offers a variety of benefits

The increase in the quantity of electricity produced by renewable sources is creating new challenges for energy grids that are already stressed. Coupled with the unstable supply of Africa’s grid, makes for a dual challenge.Today’s electricity systems must balance supply and demand at any time, enable more flexible grid management and ensure optimised levels of energy efficiency.

enery storage solutions intermittency from solar

ESS compensates for intermittency of renewable energy, such as wind and solar.

To compensate for wind and sunshine’s variability, energy storage provides stored electricity to the grid and stable power output from renewable energy.

  • Reduces output variability
  • Improves power quality
Energy Storage Solutions in South Africa
ESS can be used to defer transmission and distribution network upgrades and investment.

Using energy storage, upgrade to transmission and distribution networks can be deferred by smart management of the local peak demands.

  • Transmission support
  • Transmission congestion relief
  • Area / Frequency regulation
Energy storage solutions correct frequency issues
ESS helps grid system operators maintain constant frequency.

Energy storage based on lithium ion battery provides reliable and fast frequency response without being subject to fuel prices and with zero emissions.

Energy storage solutions - reduce energy costs
ESS enables commercial and residential owners to cut energy costs.

Electricity stored during off-peak time can be used during on-peak hours so that home/commercial owners can cut peak demand and electricity cost. ESS integrated with PV can maximize consumption of solar energy by using electricity stored off-peak.

Bespoke solutions

Our ESS division has a wide range of battery systems to meet every on-grid energy storage need. From local commercial energy management to grid utility production, transmission and distribution networks.
