The management of energy on construction sites, is an essential factor for ensuring energy storage and distribution are at optimum efficiency, saving on costs and emissions.
One of the solutions is using a BESS unit, which stores energy and distributes appropriately to the site’s electrical requirements. The stored energy is also used for peak shaving of equipment like tower cranes, which would normally demand higher power sources to cater for the peak demand.
A BESS unit stores energy from the grid or an alternative energy source and releases it as required. Modern BESS units, contain inverters, control systems and links to an online portal, where detailed performance analysis can be continually sourced. They require minimal maintenance and are simple to install, serving construction site demands including, peak shaving, energy distribution, load shifting, and backup power.
There are a plethora of BESS units on the market with different functionality to suit different applications. We understand the BESS market, and have researched the manufacturers and products available, we also understand the differences between which BESS unit is best suited to each individual project utilisation.
The preplanning for using a BESS unit/s is essential. Each site will have different energy requirements, and it is imperative that each site is planned efficiently to meet its individual specifications in the most cost effective and emission saving way.
