Renewable Energy Integration
Renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power play a critical role in reducing global reliance on fossil fuels and driving progress toward net-zero targets. However, the intermittent nature of these sources creates significant challenges for seamless energy integration into power grids and industrial systems. Key Challenges Include:
Intermittent Supply: Solar power is unavailable at night, and wind power fluctuates based on weather conditions, leading to energy supply inconsistencies.
Grid Stability: Inconsistent energy generation can destabilise power grids, causing disruptions and outages.
Energy Waste: Excess energy produced during peak generation periods often goes unused due to insufficient storage capabilities.
To fully realise the potential of renewable energy, innovative energy storage technologies are essential to bridge the gap between generation and consumption while ensuring grid reliability and operational efficiency.
Renewables provided more than 30% of the world's electricity.
Tree Associates’ AirBattery technology is specifically engineered to address the unique challenges of renewable energy storage and distribution. By capturing surplus energy and storing it as compressed air, the AirBattery efficiently releases electricity during periods of low renewable generation or high demand, ensuring reliable energy delivery.
Key Features of Tree Associates' AirBattery Technology:
Efficient Energy Storage: Stores excess renewable energy from solar, wind, and other sources, ensuring availability during periods of low production.
Grid Stability: Releases stored energy during peak demand, preventing grid overloads and balancing supply and demand.
Scalability: Adaptable for projects of all sizes, from microgrids in remote areas to large-scale renewable farms.
Retrofit Capability: Seamlessly integrates into existing renewable energy infrastructures with minimal disruption.
