Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
BESS are at the heart of the energy transition. They provide the fast, flexible response needed to integrate renewables, stabilise the grid, and deliver commercial benefits for asset owners. Root-Power designs, develops, and optimises BESS projects that unlock revenue streams and build resilience for businesses and networks.
What is BESS?
A BESS is a technology that stores electricity in rechargeable batteries and releases it when needed. Unlike traditional power plants, BESS responds instantly to grid signals, making it a critical tool for balancing supply and demand in real time.
