What is mobile energy storage?

For example, mobile storage is often the preferred solution for utility operators to meet rising power demands. Battery energy storage is also used by operators to supplement grid power for up to three years before committing to fixed infrastructure investments. Mobile energy storage for land and sea.

Why is mobile energy storage a stranded asset?

Stationary storage lacks flexibility, suffers from low utilization and from the risk of becoming a stranded asset. Power Edison addressed these issues by developing mobile energy storage platforms: TerraCharge™ and AquaCharge™ for mobile land-based and water-based mobile energy storage respectively.

What makes a good energy storage solution?

Mobility can be a key differentiator for an energy storage solution. For example, mobile storage is often the preferred solution for utility operators to meet rising power demands. Battery energy storage is also used by operators to supplement grid power for up to three years before committing to fixed infrastructure investments.

Why do power distributors need mobile storage?

Mobile storage also allows power distributors to quickly move power to where it is needed most, such as during seasonal changes from summer to winter when power demands shift.

Why do energy storage systems matter?

Energy storage systems enable a smarter and more resilient grid infrastructure through peak demand management, increased integration of renewable energy and through a myriad of additional applications. However, grid challenges are dynamic, appearing at different times and locations over the years.

Can a power Edison mobile ESS be purchased or leased?

To add even more flexibility, Power Edison mobile ESS's can be purchased, rented or leased. Power Edison’s comprehensive offerings include regulatory policy support, grid analytics, customized engineering designs, project finance and operations and maintenance.
