Battery energy storage
Securing a clean energy transition
Large-scale battery energy storage will play an important role in creating a flexible and reliable energy system and supporting rapid deployment of renewable energy. Battery energy storage technology can unlock growth in areas with network constraints, and support on-demand energy needs as we transition to more renewable sources of energy.
How does it work?
Big batteries work by storing excess electricity supply during low demand periods and delivering power back to the grid during peak times. This helps to shore up the intermittent supply of wind and solar energy, reducing blackouts and power prices. Battery energy storage is a clean and renewable power source.
