ENERGY SOLUTIONS

Grid congestion

The power grid is increasingly reaching its limits. With smart battery storage and local energy management, Bata Energy Solutions offers solutions that do allow for growth and sustainability.

The grid is full, what are the possibilities?

The Netherlands is reaching the limits of the power grid. New connections are refused, expansions are halted. But standing still is not an option. Because your company wants to continue to grow, become more sustainable, and invest. At Bata Energy Solutions, we help entrepreneurs to create space within the limits of the grid. With smart energy storage, control and own generation, you retain control over your energy, your costs and your growth.

LIMITED BY THE GRID

The consequences of grid congestion

No connection possible

You want to build a new building, but you cannot get a grid connection. With local generation and energy storage, you can still realize your project.

No expansion possible

You want to grow or electrify. But the grid is full. With smart storage and control, you can still move forward.

Returning power no longer possible

You generate your own sustainable energy, but cannot return anything. How do you keep your investment profitable?

From limitation to space on the grid

There is no single solution for grid congestion. The right approach depends on your consumption profile, connection and ambitions. With smart combinations of storage, control, generation and agreements with the grid operator, you create space on the grid again.

CAPACITY BUFFER

Energy storage

Store energy when and use it when the grid is full. This way you keep control of consumption, costs and continuity. Ideal with limited connection capacity or return restrictions.

MONITORING

Smart control

With an Energy Management System (EMS) you control your consumption, generation and storage at the right time. This way you make optimal use of the available capacity and prevent peak loads.

GRID INDEPENDENT

Local generation & collaboration

Combine your own solar energy with storage and share capacity smartly with other companies on the same grid point. This way you maximize your grid consumption and maximize generated power.

TRANSPORT AGREEMENT

Agreements with grid operator

In some regions you can get a (limited) connection via a non-firm ATO. This allows you to use the grid when there is space, a smart temporary solution until expansion is possible.

Our approach

Turnkey solutions
From initial exploration to completion: we guide the entire process. One point of contact, short lines, and an installation that runs as agreed.

Permits and subsidy advice
We help with grid connection, permit applications, and subsidies. This saves you time and maximizes your return.

Installation and monitoring
Our installation teams ensure safe and clean execution. After completion, we monitor the performance in real-time, so you always have insight.

FAQ

We notice that entrepreneurs often have questions about grid congestion. Below you will find clear answers to the most frequently asked questions about energy management, payback time, subsidies and grid congestion, specially tailored to the practice of SMEs.

Grid congestion occurs when the electricity grid can no longer handle the peaks in demand or supply. This means that returning power or expanding a connection is limited.

Because the grid is overloaded, grid operators are increasingly refusing to allocate extra capacity. As a result, generated power cannot be returned temporarily.

A battery stores generated energy and makes it possible to use it later. This flattens peaks, reduces the load on the grid connection and allows more own energy to be used.

Yes. By combining solar energy with battery storage and smart control, you can expand without being completely dependent on grid capacity.

Every location and every consumption profile is different. That is why we make a free customized calculation, in which we look at consumption, generation, storage and return.
