Battery energy storage systems (BESS), an always-on energy source, can contribute to day-to-day supply, improve operational resiliency, and deliver sustainability benefits. As a result, they are far more appealing to a range of buyers, including enterprise and multi-tenant data center owners.
Another use case for battery storage on microgrids is aggregating BESS as a virtual power plant (VPP) to correct imbalances in the utility grid. At the grid level, when the supply of power from renewables temporarily drops, utilities need to respond quickly to maintain equilibrium between supply and demand and stabilize the grid frequency.
Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are the most highly developed option in size, performance, and cost. A broad ecosystem of manufacturers, system integrators, and complete system providers supports Li-ion technology. However, the vendors best equipped to bring value to microgrids bring the right components to each project.
The Inflation Reduction Act incentivizes large-scale battery storage projects. And California regulations now require energy storage for newly constructed commercial buildings. The same microgrid-based BESS can serve either or both of these use cases.
Volatile energy markets, utility grid disruptions, and the rising awareness of climate change have created new energy challenges that require innovative answers. As a result, many organizations are embracing microgrids as a solution to the mounting problems.
Shifting to renewable energy requires storage projects to deliver low-carbon energy to markets and boost transmission network flexibility. Anbaric, established in 2004, is considered one of the top microgrid-as-a-service companies in the world.
