🔋 Maximizing Efficiency in Renewable Energy with BESS and Ground Screws! 🌍 As we transition to a more sustainable future, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are becoming crucial for balancing the grid and optimizing renewable energy sources like solar and wind. But did you know the way we install BESS can have a big impact on efficiency and the environment? That's where ground screws come in! 🌱 ✅ Faster Installation – Ground screws eliminate the need for concrete foundations, reducing setup time significantly. ✅ Eco-Friendly – No need for heavy excavation or the use of large quantities of concrete, which reduces the carbon footprint of the project. ✅ Flexibility & Versatility – Ground screws can be installed in various soil conditions, making them ideal for projects in hard-to-reach or uneven terrains. ✅ Cost-Effective – With reduced labor, materials, and environmental impact, ground screws offer a more budget-friendly installation method for your BESS. By choosing this innovative solution, you're not just investing in energy storage—you're investing in smarter, greener infrastructure. 🌿 💡 The future of energy is here. Are you ready to power it? 🔋 #EnergyStorage #BESS #RenewableEnergy #GroundScrews #Sustainability #GreenEnergy #Innovation #CleanTech

L:TEC means unmatched stability and safety for solar trackers, even in 400 kph winds or severe hail. The ever-evolving renewable energy landscape demands solar tracking systems to meet new regulatory requirements and engineering challenges. Increasingly frequent extreme weather and terrain flexibility are the most complex and pressing design concerns. Over the last 15 years, Ideematec’s specialty has been following challenging terrain, building the design and engineering expertise that made L:TEC the industry benchmark. Recent extreme weather events globally have shown that high winds and hail events cause catastrophic damage to unprepared solar installations. IDEEMATEC’s THOR-Stow hail damage prevention strategy is the next level of added protection when paired with the rock-solid stability of the L:TEC tracker platform. These software and hardware innovations create the most comprehensive safety net for the substantial investments made in solar parks. #solartrackers #innovation #solarpower #solarpv #weather #terrain #design #investments #renewableenergy PES Solar Lorena Burriel Catalán Evelyn Kroiß Mario Eckl Markus Schmid Linda Koschier Robin N Mota Dawson Stephan Bächtle Ralf Winter Adeel Kurdi Markus Sonnleitner Alexander Maluschka

Energy Vault: Engineering the Future of Renewable Energy Having made strides in gravity energy storage systems (GESS)—which hold the potential to store and supply renewable energy to the power grid safely, for long periods, and without degrading—the global company sought out SOM’s architecture and engineering expertise to develop the next generation of GESS technology. When integrated into tall buildings, these systems can maximize sustainability, accelerate carbon payback of building construction, and lower the levelized cost of energy consumption. They can also bring sustainable energy storage to natural landscapes with minimal environmental impact. #future #renewableenergy #powergrid #storage #environment #gess

As stated in a recently published article in DBDH’s Hot & Cool Magazine, Large Thermal Energy Storage (#LTES) solutions are a game-changer for district heating and other large-scale applications – and we couldn’t agree more. Both high- and low temperature storage technologies are key in securing a stable and cost-effective energy supply in the future and likewise, vital in achieving both security of supply and energy independence. Large-scale energy storages enable the decoupling of production and demand and thereby assist in stabilizing the energy system while minimizing the expensive peak load production. We are proud to have been part of the LTES project in Høje Taastrup – a great example of both flexible and efficient sector coupling of electricity and district heating. #ChangingEnergy #PTES
