Communication Base Station Energy Solutions
Many remote areas lack access to traditional power grids, yet base stations require 24/7 uninterrupted power supply to maintain stable communication services.
A BESS can also be used for energy arbitrage: e.g., generating low- cost solar power and then selling the excess to the grid to offset night-time purchases. To understand the main characteristics of the BESS system, a general overview of the whole battery system is shown in Figure 1.
The BESS includes two parallel lines, and each line is composed of two battery systems, where energy is stored, two energy converters switchboards, which represent the interface components between the energy storage and the energy distribution line, and one transformer, used for voltage adaptation of the power supply.
Offshore: the use of BESS is becoming more prominent on offshore platforms, where they are utilized to stabilise power systems, support intermittent renewable energy integration (e.g., wind or solar), and ensure efficient load management.
Renewable source intermittency: use BESS to increase behind the meter capacity of solar PV or wind. By installing systems with nameplate capacity larger than the load of an upstream operation, a BESS can store the excess energy for use when the sun is not shining or the wind is not blowing.
