Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are a game-changer for renewable microgrids. They help balance supply and demand, extend operating hours, and improve power quality. These benefits not only enhance customer satisfaction and retention but also drive better socioeconomic outcomes, enabling rural businesses to thrive.
However, designing, installing, and operating BESS in isolated microgrids comes with unique technical and economic challenges. Without the right strategies, projects can suffer from inefficiencies, premature battery degradation, or unexpected failures.
Join this webinar to gain practical insights from industry experts on how to maximise the performance and longevity of your BESS in off-grid environments.
What you’ll learn:
- Selecting the right BESS – Key factors to consider when deploying storage in an off-grid setting
- Advanced Energy Management Systems (EMS) – How to optimise efficiency and extend battery lifespan
- Operational best practices – Avoid common failures and ensure safe, reliable operation
- Balance of System (BoS) considerations – What’s needed to keep your BESS running at peak performance
- Commissioning a BESS plant – Step-by-step insights into deploying and integrating storage in microgrids
Whether you’re designing a new project or looking to improve existing systems, this session will equip you with the knowledge needed to optimise your BESS strategy for rural microgrids.
This online session is free to attend, but places are limited. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from some of the leaders in the field of microgrid financing.
