WHAT WE DO

Flexible Generation

With electricity demand likely to double by 2030, we need flexible power response to balance the grid when excess power is needed and strengthen energy security.

How our technology works

Diagram of a battery energy storage system (BESS). Step 1: Multiple battery storage units store electricity and release it back to the grid during periods of high demand. Step 2: A central power control container manages the safe and efficient transfer of energy between the batteries and the grid. Step 3: A transformer sends electricity to the grid through a DNO connection point. Orange cables illustrate the energy flow from the batteries through the control system to the grid connection.

How our technology works

Supporting a more flexible and resilient electricity system

As more renewable energy is added to the grid, flexibility becomes increasingly important. Our flexible generation assets help balance supply and demand, supporting the reliability of the electricity system.

Battery storage allows excess electricity to be stored and used when demand increases or renewable generation falls. Our power response assets can also quickly provide electricity to the grid during periods of high demand or system stress.

Together, these technologies help maintain grid stability while supporting the wider transition to low-carbon energy.
