Electric energy storage
EQUA designs and installs plants and systems for the storage of electricity in the domestic sector networked DEESS, Domestic Electric Energy Storage Systems. Several renewable energy sources produce irregularly and unexpectedly only when the renewable energy source is available (eg. sun or wind).
The usage is determined by the need of the user, it is, in fact, necessary to store energy in excess for the later needs. For this reason the storage systems are an important aspect for the development and diffusion of the technologies for the production related to renewable energy. We use electrochemical storage technologies such as lead-gel, Sodium Nickel Chloride and Lithium.
The accumulation of electricity is a vital step in the path towards the “smart grid” and a new energy model to switch from the role of consumers to the role of independent producers (prosumer). The energy can also be stored in electric car batteries that can be driven and charged connecting them to the network in the coming years.
