What is a mobile energy storage system?

Mobile energy storage systems (MESSs) can be self-mobile electric vehicles (vans, buses, or light-duty vehicles) or towable (semi-trailer trucks). During restoration purposes, MESS should be dispatched to the desired location (non-black start generator unis locations).

Why is mobile energy storage a stranded asset?

Stationary storage lacks flexibility, suffers from low utilization and from the risk of becoming a stranded asset. Power Edison addressed these issues by developing mobile energy storage platforms: TerraCharge™ and AquaCharge™ for mobile land-based and water-based mobile energy storage respectively.

Why do energy storage systems matter?

Energy storage systems enable a smarter and more resilient grid infrastructure through peak demand management, increased integration of renewable energy and through a myriad of additional applications. However, grid challenges are dynamic, appearing at different times and locations over the years.

Can a power Edison mobile ESS be purchased or leased?

To add even more flexibility, Power Edison mobile ESS's can be purchased, rented or leased. Power Edison’s comprehensive offerings include regulatory policy support, grid analytics, customized engineering designs, project finance and operations and maintenance.
