A safe future - avoid downtime
Energy that lasts - make sure you save!
Electricity needs to be produced at the same time as it is used, which is a major challenge for the electricity system. The need to store electricity has become increasingly relevant as the share of weather-dependent electricity generation grows. For example, if there is a lot of wind and it is not possible to utilise all the wind power produced at the moment, it is smart to be able to save the electricity for times when there is no wind, and the same applies of course to solar energy when the sun is not as bright.
Other ways for batteries to add value:
- One example is "peak shaving", whereby batteries can be recharged at times when electricity use is relatively low, and then topped up when electricity use is at its highest. This would allow you to reduce your fuse size, and thus the cost of your electricity network subscription. For example, if you reduce your fuse size from 20 A to 16 A using the battery as a "power monitor", you can often save about SEK 1000-2000 per year.
- Another exciting opportunity for batteries is the synergies that can arise when every second Swede has an electric car at home. In addition to transporting us, these electric cars can also be used to store solar electricity. A typical electric car has batteries of 25 kWh to 60 kWh. To store solar power from day to night, a battery of 5-10 kWh is usually sufficient.
