Powering Supermarkets Efficiently with BESS During Load Peaks
Supermarkets are high energy users with round-the-clock refrigeration, lighting, and HVAC systems. These demands are further intensified during peak hours. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are the key to optimising energy use and improving resilience.
Manage Load Peaks with Stored Energy
During times of high demand, supermarkets often face energy surcharges. BESS allows you to store electricity during low-demand periods and use it when the grid is strained, reducing peak-related costs.
Protect Perishables During Outages
In the event of a blackout, perishables can spoil quickly. BESS provides seamless backup power, ensuring critical systems like refrigeration continue to operate without disruption.
Reduce Grid Dependency
Supermarkets can pair BESS with solar panels to generate and store their own power, minimizing reliance on the grid and insulating themselves from rising energy prices.
Lower Carbon Footprint
Sustainable operation is becoming a priority for many grocery chains. Installing BESS helps meet environmental goals and enhances your store’s green reputation.
