Stationary Storage: Key element
of the future energy system
Worldwide growing energy demand, the shift from fossil to renewable energy
supply and the associated challenges for power transmission and distribution
are forcing an inevitable change in the energy system. The deployment of
renewable energy fosters decentralized power generation and impacts the
efficient use of the transmission and distribution grid. Stationary Energy
Storage will play a key role in the future energy supply system as it allows
energy to be used at any time, regardless of when it was produced.

Smooth and effective integration
of renewable energy sources
Renewable energy like wind and photovoltaic (PV)
are by nature susceptible to fluctuations that can
be efficiently smoothed with Storage. Coupled with
an Energy Storage system, wind and PV become
dispatchable and controllable energy sources.
Thereby, the strain on the grid is reduced, and
energy demand and supply can be better balanced.

Our Goal: Maximizing benefits
of Storage for our customers
Beginning with an intensive assessment of customer requirements,
all the way through to system design and installation, we are always
in close collaboration with our customers to create the best solution
for their specific use. Our expertise in three key areas enables us
from an outstanding position to achieve the best use of Storage.
Powerful simulation tools for technical
and economic assessment
Our industry benchmarked planning tool and
our deep knowledge of applications enable us
to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the
techno-economical viability of Storage for each
customer. The Bosch planning tool selects the
most suitable Storage technology and determines its optimal dimension, as well as for other
generation assets. Based on the customer’s
load profile and electricity tariff structure, the
tool also selects the most profitable revenue
streams.
