Wattstor helps Icknield Biogas cut electricity costs by 25% with zero upfront capital

For energy-intensive sites, rising electricity costs and grid constraints can make future growth increasingly difficult. Icknield Biogas, a South Oxfordshire anaerobic digestion site producing enough renewable gas to heat 6,000 homes, faced both: growing electricity demand and a grid connection that limited its ability to expand using conventional renewable solutions. Wattstor’s answer was a fully […]

Waste management starts with energy: The hidden cost of unnecessary generator runtime

Prolectric ProCharge Solar Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) supplying renewable off-grid power to a large site compound on the Kier A417 Missing Link project.

Energy waste is less visible than material waste, but it can be just as costly. Across construction, infrastructure, utilities and large estates, temporary power can become a blind spot in energy and carbon strategies. Diesel generators are often specified around a site’s maximum demand. In practice, they may spend much of the day running at […]

Explosion prevention and protection for BESS enclosures

Containerized battery energy storage systems (BESS) have expanded rapidly in North America as utilities, businesses, and communities integrate batteries for grid stability, backup power, renewable energy integration, microgrid support, and hybrid energy systems.  This widespread adoption is one reason safety standards such as NFPA 855 have become more significant, as regulators and industry stakeholders seek […]

How to protect your operations against rising energy grid uncertainty

Believe it or not, reliable access to energy is becoming a strategic concern for organisations across both the public and private sectors. Increasing electricity demand (such as during the May and June UK heatwaves), the growth of renewable generation, ageing infrastructure and more frequent extreme weather events (ditto) are all contributing to greater uncertainty around […]

Choosing the Right Energy Storage Solutions: What to ask your suppliers

As organisations across the private & public sectors face rising electricity costs, increasing pressure to meet sustainability targets and growing concerns around energy resilience, battery energy storage systems (BESS) are moving from niche applications into mainstream energy infrastructure… Whether supporting renewable energy generation, reducing peak demand charges or improving operational resilience, energy storage can help […]

Innovate UK launches £3.7m battery skills initiative to support energy transition workforce

Innovate UK has launched a new £3.7 million funding competition aimed at strengthening the UK’s battery manufacturing skills base, as demand grows for specialist expertise across the energy storage and electrification sectors. Delivered through the Battery Innovation Programme and funded by the Department for Business and Trade (DBT), the initiative is designed to help develop […]

ENERGY STORAGE MONTH: Storage procurement priorities for energy and FM leaders

Facilities managers and energy leaders attending the Energy Management Summit face growing pressure to reduce carbon emissions, stabilise energy costs, and meet grid decarbonisation goals, energy storage has emerged as a powerful enabler of energy resilience and optimisation. Choosing the right digital storage partner is not just about battery capacity, it’s about aligning with the […]
