Solar Grid Storage is the leading pioneer in solar storage deployment; the company has developed an innovative market-based model to deploy storage in solar projects. This groundbreaking business model enables batteries to be added to commercial solar photovoltaic (PV) installations while lowering costs and adding new benefits.
Solar Grid Storage’s products / market-based finance models deploy storage in solar projects. Delivering normal solar inverter functions, Solar Grid Storage utilizes its advanced inverter/storage system, adding ancillary services to grid operators, and earning revenues to finance upgraded assets. The company’s PowerFactor™ systems replace standard inverters with dual-use inverters, lowering costs and delivering new benefits, including emergency power, enhancing PV system value with no additional cost to host customer. Benefits include:
• Backup power during outages.
• A more resilient grid.
• Reduced power demand at peak times / added distribution system resiliency
• Better power balance thanks to ‘shock absorbing’ buffers that PowerFactor™ systems provide, constantly helping balance generation and load on the grid.
• Accelerated deployment of solar and storage into the grid.
