Active internationally in the development, construction, and operation of battery energy storage systems, BayWa r.e. manages a portfolio of over 3 GW in projects currently under development.

Our expertise enables us to develop standalone systems that can be connected directly to the grid, as well as hybrid systems integrated with solar and/or wind farms.

The benefits of BESS

Energy storage is crucial for enhancing grid flexibility and advancing renewable energy development:

The balancing of the electrical grid by offsetting discrepancies between production and consumption

The security of electricity supply

The stabilisation of energy costs by damping fluctuations

A more efficient integration of renewable energy into the grid
