A key prerequisite for a 100% renewable energy future
In many countries, renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power are now the cheapest and fastest-growing ways to produce electricity. Renewable energy sources are also the most sustainable option – solar panels and wind turbines produce no local emissions or pollutants.
However, we live in a 24/7 world where we want to have electricity all the time, and renewable energy sources are inherently intermittent. They don’t produce a continuous stream of energy round-the-clock because the sun sets every evening and there are calm, windless days.
This is why we need energy storage systems. They allow us to store renewable energy when it is readily available – when the sun shines and the wind blows. Energy storage is a critical component to the adoption and advancement of renewable energy sources around the world.
Balancing power demand The ability to deliver power when it is needed. TAICO has a range of solutions optimized for balancing renewable generation, such as engine power plants powered by sustainable fuels that can quickly start and stop generation, and our energy management software platform GEMS, our website taicopower.com.
People sometimes confuse balancing with flexibility. This is understandable, as they are interconnected.
