Battery Storage

Store energy. Use it when it creates the most value.

Electricity demand is changing. Solar generation, EV charging, electrification and changing operating patterns can all affect when and how much electricity a business needs.

Battery storage gives businesses the ability to store electricity and use it at a different time, creating greater flexibility over how energy is managed.

But the question isn’t simply whether you can install a battery.

It’s whether battery storage would create enough value for your business to make the investment worthwhile.

BSUK can assess your energy use, understand your demand profile and establish whether battery storage makes commercial sense for your business.

Where could battery storage add value?

The potential value of battery storage depends on how your business uses electricity.

We can assess factors including:

Electricity consumption and half-hourly usage
Peak demand periods
Electricity costs and tariff structure
Existing or planned solar generation
Site infrastructure and grid capacity
Current and future electricity demand
EV charging and electrification plans
Potential costs, benefits and return

This means the opportunity is assessed using your actual energy profile rather than assumptions.

Built around your business

The right battery isn’t necessarily the biggest battery.

A system that is too large may not be used effectively, while one that is too small may not provide the flexibility or financial benefit expected.

BSUK can help establish:

How much storage you need
Based on your electricity consumption, demand profile and operating patterns.

When it could be used
Looking at when stored electricity could provide the greatest value for your business.

How it fits your wider energy position
Taking account of existing or planned solar, EV charging, electrification and future changes in demand.

Whether the investment stacks up
Considering the potential costs, benefits and return before you commit.

The objective isn’t simply to install a battery.

It’s to establish whether the right battery solution can deliver a genuine commercial benefit for your business.

Could battery storage make a difference to your energy costs and flexibility?

Battery storage as part of your wider energy strategy

Battery storage doesn’t need to be considered in isolation.

For some businesses, it may complement existing or planned solar by allowing more generated electricity to be used when it is needed. It may also help manage additional demand from EV charging or future electrification.

However, solar and battery storage, or battery storage and EV charging, won’t necessarily be the right combination for every business.

That’s why BSUK starts with your energy use, operating patterns and future requirements rather than starting with a particular technology.

What happens next?

If the assessment identifies a genuine opportunity, BSUK can help you understand the potential solution and coordinate the next steps through specialist delivery partners.

If battery storage doesn’t make commercial sense, we’ll tell you that too.

The starting point is always your business, your energy use and what you are trying to achieve.
