Problem
The increasing integration of renewable energy sources into the grid creates intermittency challenges, leading to imbalances between electricity supply and demand. This necessitates advanced grid flexibility solutions to prevent saturation and ensure reliable power distribution.
Solution
Ambos Energy develops and operates high-power Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) designed to provide essential grid flexibility. These BESS assets act as a buffer, absorbing surplus renewable energy during periods of low demand and discharging power during peak consumption, thereby stabilizing the grid. The company collaborates with a network of partners, including developers, local authorities, agricultural entities, and industrial clients, to identify optimal locations for standalone BESS projects, typically near high-voltage transmission lines or substations. This approach facilitates the integration of renewables, enhances energy independence, and reduces reliance on fossil fuels during peak demand.
Target Audience
Ambos Energy targets renewable energy developers seeking financing and co-development partners, as well as landowners such as local authorities, farmers, and industrial companies with available land near grid connection points.
Features
- Development and operation of standalone Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) with capacities starting from 100 MW.
- Strategic site selection for BESS assets, focusing on proximity to grid connection points such as private or public substations and high-voltage transmission lines.
- Partnership model for co-development and value sharing with local authorities, farmers, and industrial stakeholders.
- Focus on providing grid flexibility services to grid operators and aggregators.
- Facilitation of renewable energy integration by balancing supply and demand fluctuations.
- Deployment of BESS to mitigate grid saturation and reduce the need for grid reinforcement.
