How can Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) help large energy consumers?

Ashley is the system controller for a large manufacturing facility, a facility that consumes a considerable amount of power in its production process.

One of the requirements of Ashley’s job is to know the exact power price at any hour, an understanding that needs to be correlated to the amount of power that is being consumed by the facility at any given point in time.

This has become a more difficult task as the increasing amount of renewable generation supplying the grid is creating greater power price fluctuations. And when coupled with greater weather volatility, and an ageing fleet of baseload generators, understanding forecasted power prices to schedule peak manufacturing events is becoming an almost impossible task.

TERIC Power works closely with facilities like Ashley’s, facilities that consume large amounts of power that are either directly connected to the transmission grid, or are distribution connected but with loads that exceed 10MW.

TERIC’s customized battery energy storage systems allow such facilities to continue with planned operations events without needing to consider power prices, resulting in a reduction of power bills, or an alignment to budgeted forecasts.

Additionally, these customized battery energy storage systems allow the host facility to earn additional revenue by TERIC Power employing the batteries in niche ISO market opportunities.

If you are a facility:

• that is directly connected to the transmission grid
• that is distribution connected but with loads that exceed 10MW
• whose power bill is a significant component of the overall operating budget
• have operations that cannot be interrupted

Then speak to TERIC to find out how our customized battery energy storage systems can help you to reduce power bills and create additional revenue-earning opportunities.
