Ankara Energy Storage Backup Power Supply BESS

What is battery energy storage system (BESS)?

As power systems increasingly integrate variable renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, the need for flexible and reliable power grids that can supply electricity at all times has become essential. Battery energy storage system (BESS) can address these supply-demand gaps by providing flexibility to balance supply and demand in real-time.

What are battery energy storage systems?

Battery energy storage systems offer power grids key opportunities for better flexibility, renewable energy integration, and reliable power supply by storing excess renewable energy during low demand times to release during peak demand enabling higher renewable energy penetration and supporting global decarbonisation.

What is Bess & why should you use it?

Offshore: the use of BESS is becoming more prominent on offshore platforms, where they are utilized to stabilise power systems, support intermittent renewable energy integration (e.g., wind or solar), and ensure efficient load management.

What is a Bess meter & how does it work?

Renewable source intermittency: use BESS to increase behind the meter capacity of solar PV or wind. By installing systems with nameplate capacity larger than the load of an upstream operation, a BESS can store the excess energy for use when the sun is not shining or the wind is not blowing.
