Compared to the electricity transmission infrastructure required to meet the growing energy demand, the current pace of building grid infrastructure is inadequate, with planning and permitting often taking 5 to 15 years. To turn the tide, BESS manufacturers have become a key piece of the puzzle. By directly connecting BESS to the high-voltage transmission network, it offers a game-changing solution for alleviating the strain on the grid and supporting decarbonization. Cubenergy has been providing large-scale BESS, as a transmission-connected solution, in Nordic Europe, America, and China. Our BESS solutions deliver balancing services such as frequency response to the national grid, enabling greater flexibility and facilitating the integration of more distributed renewable generation. Considering the diverse Grid Code requirements across regions and TSOs/DSOs, we fine-tune our systems to ensure optimal performance and seamless integration with each grid. #energystorage #bess #grid #renewableenergy #energytransition #ess #energysolution

In the dynamic operation of modern power grids, maintaining stability and reliability is paramount. Grid operators are seeking ancillary services to ensure efficient grid management. Cubenergy’s BESS contributes to support grid stability. In routine grid operations, our BESS projects respond to grid operator signals to provide real-time regulation, adjusting power supply and demand. As renewable energy sources become increasingly integrated into the grid, their intermittency introduces challenges of load imbalance and frequency deviations. Our BESS can help to smooth out the variability of renewable generations, ensuring their output aligns with grid patterns. In addition to reinforcing grid resilience, our BESS projects show sustainable economic value by participating in ancillary markets. #energystorage #ess #frequencyregulation #grid #batterystorage #bess

Power Grid Resilience: BESS to the Rescue! 🔋 Recent events in the UK have highlighted the critical role of Battery Energy Storage Systems (#BESS) in maintaining grid stability. When the NSL interconnector between the UK and Norway unexpectedly tripped, causing a 1.4GW power loss, BESS units across the network sprang into action. Key takeaways: • BESS injected 1.5GW of power within minutes • Grid frequency was restored from 49.59Hz to operational limits • Multiple BESS providers contributed to the rapid response At SPD Energy, we're proud to be at the forefront of BESS technology. Our utility-scale solutions are designed to provide: ✅ Rapid frequency response ✅ Grid stabilization ✅ Renewable energy integration support As the world transitions to cleaner energy sources, the importance of robust BESS infrastructure cannot be overstated. We're committed to developing cutting-edge solutions that ensure power reliability and support the global shift towards sustainable energy. How do you see BESS shaping the future of energy grids?

National Renewable Energy Laboratory is connecting remote communities to affordable and reliable #energy through the Community Microgrid Assistance Partnership, or C-MAP. Through the program, communities are invited to propose a #microgrid development or improvement project for funding and/or technical assistance. Advanced microgrids enable balancing energy supply and demand locally even when the larger #grid experiences interruptions–and are a vital solution for remote areas with no connection to the grid. Check out this article to learn more about program capabilities and the informational webinar covering the structure, technical focus, and eligibility criteria for the first Request for Proposals (RFP) released by C-MAP.

DAY 18 Grid-Forming vs. Grid-Following BESS Want to explore Grid Stability and BESS more? Let’s connect! #RenewableEnergy #Photovoltaics #CleanEnergy #BESS #EnergyStorage #GridStability
DAY 18 Grid-Forming vs. Grid-Following BESS As power systems continue to achieve higher penetrations of non-synchronous Renewable Energy (RE) sources via replacing conventional synchronous generators, the power system inertia reduces. Thus, the frequency stability of these power systems is challenged. Grid-Forming and Grid-Following Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are fundamental to modern power systems, especially with increasing renewable energy integration. Grid-Forming BESS functions as voltage sources, autonomously setting and regulating grid voltage and frequency. They provide essential inertial support and can operate in both islanded and grid-connected modes, making them ideal for stabilizing microgrids and weak grids with high renewable penetration. In contrast, Grid-Following BESS acts as a current sources that synchronize with the existing grid's voltage and frequency. They excel in supporting robust grids by providing ancillary services like frequency regulation and peak shaving. Grasping the technical distinctions between these systems is crucial for optimizing grid performance and resilience. Want to explore Grid Stability and BESS more?

The approval of Sun Cable’s US$13.5 billion solar energy project signals a bold step towards achieving a sustainable energy future. HVDC cables are ideal for underwater transmission as they avoid issues like reactive power loss, which plagues AC systems over long distances, ensuring higher efficiency and reliability. On land, transitioning to a DC grid is crucial for improving energy efficiency, particularly for data centers where most IT equipment inherently operates on DC. Aligning infrastructure with DC technology will streamline power usage, minimize conversion losses, and better support renewable energy integration. #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #Energysustainability #HVDC #EnergyEfficiency #CleanEnergy #SolarPower #GreenTechnology #UnderseaCable #FutureOfEnergy #DataCenterEfficiency #DCGrid

The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) is facing two major upheavals in the coming years: 1️⃣ Renewable capacity in the region is forecasted to rise 120% by the end of the decade. 2️⃣ Peak system demand could be as high as 152 gigawatts in 2030 by Ercot estimates — nearly double the current grid’s proven maximum. Whilst incumbent utilities are ramping up spending to meet these challenges, the resultant grid buildout falls short of what is needed to hit net zero. 🔗 Read more in BNEF’s analysis: https://bloom.bg/46sED12 #NetZero #RenewableEnergy
