Batteriespeicherlösungen zur energiewirtschaftlichen Optimierung von Industriebetrieben

The industry is facing major challenges due to rising prices for electrical energy. The average electricity price for industry in Germany rose from 12.07 ct per kWh in 2010 to 19.09 ct per kWh in 2021. Battery storage solutions offer a wide range of applications to optimize industrial companies in terms of energy management. These are, for example, the intensive grid use or a combination of atypical grid use and the marketing of primary balancing power. This article describes these use cases and explains different types of suitable battery storage systems. In the following, an exemplary battery storage system at an industrial company is presented. The article closes with the description of an innovative approach based on artificial intelligence. This enables the control of battery storage systems in the case of challenges due to the high complexity of the overall system.
