Balancing the grid and energy storage
ESG value chain consulting
Stabilising the circular economy with local energy storage
With the clean energy transition, SFA (Oxford) helps energy-intensive industries with energy storage assessments to reduce their reliance on the grid. Smart energy use from energy storage can be attained from peak shaving, load shifting, emergency back-up and demand response. Similarly, the development of independent localised grids and onsite energy generation reinforces power resilience in volatile periods to deliver greater control and performance, and new value-enhancing opportunities with surplus energy production. Seasonal energy storage and alleviate the demand for green power availability. Let SFA augment your sustainable energy strategy and assess optimal grid storage solutions to support local load balancing, as well as integration of renewable energy to support local load balancing.
