Enhance grid stability and defer costly upgrades with Pixii’s flexible battery energy storage system
With the growing electrification and the influx of renewables, managing aging distribution grids requires a cost-effective, quick-to-deploy solution. Pixii’s flexible BESS enables a complete value stacking solution to support grid stability and improve power quality.
Pixii’s BESS technology offers solutions like voltage support and frequency regulation, which stabilize the grid by balancing power supply. These systems also store excess energy when demand is low and release it during peak times, reducing the need for costly infrastructure upgrades.
By adopting value stacking, DSOs can utilize the same BESS for multiple functions, such as load balancing, energy arbitrage, and voltage support, reducing operational costs whilst also creating revenue streams by participating in energy markets. Additionally, with Pixii’s Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) model, DSOs can access storage without significant capital expenditure, further enhancing return on investment (ROI).
The Pixii BESS is quick to deploy and easy to install, with hot swappable modules allowing for easy maintenance. Remote monitoring gives you complete control of your assets, and with a range of services and support, including software enrichment upgrades, you will be future-proof.
Value stacking for DSO/DNSP:
Community battery
A shared energy storage system that allows multiple users, to store and use excess renewable energy. It helps participants maximize solar self-consumption, lower energy costs, and reduce reliance on the grid. By supporting local energy sharing and grid stability, it also creates opportunities for financial returns through wholesale electricity trading.
Grid support
Supply extra power during peak demand to increase grid capacity. This helps network operators to avoid costly infrastructure upgrades, while ensuring C&I businesses have the reliable energy they require.
Ancilliary services
Generate income from the BESS by providing essential grid-stabilizing services, such as frequency regulation and reserve capacity. By participating in energy markets, you help maintain grid balance while earning revenue from high-demand services that support reliable grid operations
Voltage support (DSO)
Provides dynamic voltage regulation by absorbing or injecting reactive power, helping maintain voltage levels within regulatory limits. This service enhances grid stability, reduces the risk of equipment stress, and improves power quality, supporting efficient network operation and minimizing the need for infrastructure upgrades.
Reactive power compensation
Enhance grid stability and efficiency by managing reactive power flow to maintain voltage levels within regulatory limits. This reduces energy losses, minimizes stress on grid infrastructure, and lowers operational costs, while supporting more efficient integration of distributed energy resources.
Active power compensation
Optimize grid performance by dynamically adjusting active power flow to balance supply and demand in real-time. This service reduces energy losses, enhances system efficiency, and supports grid stability, helping to maintain power quality and meet operational and regulatory requirements.
Phase balancing
Stabilize three-phase power loads by redistributing energy between phases to ensure a balanced and efficient flow. This improves the efficiency of distribution networks and supports voltage stability for DSOs, while also helping commercial and industrial actors improve power quality, protect equipment, and reduce operational costs.
