Sizing a Battery Energy Storage (BES) for a smart building application is a trade-off between cost of the BES itself and available stored energy. Our software is able to compute, for each targeted building, the size of BES minimizing the investment cost and maximizing revenues.
Unfortunately, for the majority of building (residential or industrial) there is a time mismatch between PV production and Load consumption. Our software is able to predict and manage the time window for which it is possible to charge the BES (PV higher than load) and discharge the battery (PV lower than load).
The management is done for reducing the ageing of the BES and increasing the revenues. Based on our validation, in real buildings located in Lausanne, the ageing is reduced up to 45% compared to a non ageing-aware strategy.
Deploying your battery for frequency and/or voltage control? How much will it cost from the utility point of view? And from an end-client? We are able to compute this cost and the associated benefit.
Aurora'Grid is working on the integration of EVs batteries providing ancillary services to the grid (V2G) or to building (V2B). Moreovoer, we started to focus on the development of an EMS for Second-life batteries applications.
Wondering about the lifetime of the battery pack of your medical device? We can evaluate it and give you some tips for extending its lifetime as longer as possible.
All these wrong behaviours have to be avoided with residential and industrial battery storage systems.
The direct connection between Voltalia Group and Aurora’s Grid is a clear example of how companies can quickly optimize their effort through rapid design and simulation cycles of battery energy storage coupled with photovoltaic power plant. Sizing-emulating platforms such as Aurora’s Grid 4.0 are a growing need on the desktop, as more engineers analyze “battery project” products for real-operating conditions while designing. This trend– in which battery twin-digital simulation occurs as part of the daily feasibility study process – benefits companies by providing an improved understanding of the ROI of the targeted project and better estimation of lifetime of the battery as well as C02 footprint reduction with a fast realization of optimal designs.
We will prove that in addition to a yearly balance between renewable production and load consumption, we do need to further decrease CO2 footprint of buildings and grids, by storing renewable energy and deploying it when the CO2 footprint of the grid is the worst one! To achieve this goal we are enhancing our Energy Management for Mutiple Application (EMMA), we are using 2nd life battery storage and we futher collaborate with Eaton Group.
We are proud to annoucne that Aurora’s Grid 3.0 sizing/diagnostic platform recieved the Solar Impulse Efficient Solution Label. You can now also find details about our solution here.
