BESS is a key tool for the system operator to use to better manage the demand of electricity in the area. This is especially useful during unexpected events such as providing stability during weather fluctuations and extraordinary actions such as interconnector or power station faults.
Through enabling cheaper renewable energy generation such as wind and solar, BESS could help to bring energy costs down as the UK grid moves away from more expensive fossil fuel generation.
Increased penetration of renewable energy on the UK grid provides multiple benefits aside from cost, including energy security and wide-ranging environmental benefits such as improved air quality and negligible risk of pollution incidents.
TBC Partners want to make sure their project makes a positive impact to the local community whether that is through land use diversification, biodiversity net gain, job creation, education initiatives and investment in the local community development and charities.
