EV Battery Storage

By 2030, it is predicted that there will be 300,000 public EV charge points in the UK and an even higher number of domestic, workplace and depot chargers. Battery storage systems can play a vital role in managing the peaks in EV charging demand.

Many commercial premises do not have the capacity required for EV charging. A new or upgraded DNO supply may not be available or be prohibitively expensive. Battery Storage offers a guaranteed supply for EV charging and can support high-power charging on sites that do not have the capacity required.

When a site’s electrical supply is constrained and cannot deliver the peak EV charging power required at certain times of the day, a battery energy storage system can act as a power ‘reservoir’ to supplement the mains supply. This avoids penalties due to breaches in a site’s electrical supply and connection conditions, and is especially useful for depot charging which can experience significant peaks in demand.

ElectrAssure is able to include battery storage technologies from a number of suppliers and partners in our integrated EV charging solutions.
