Boosting UK manufacturing resilience with Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
UK manufacturers face some of the highest industrial energy costs in Europe—up to 50% more than Germany or France, and four times higher than the US.[1] This energy price pressure threatens competitiveness and growth, as highlighted in Make UK’s recent report.[2]
As an energy solutions specialist, we are emphasizing the role of battery energy storage systems (BESS) and hybrid power solutions in helping manufacturers manage volatile energy prices and grid instability. Our latest guide, Sharing the Load, explores how temporary hybrid power incorporating BESS enables manufacturers to dynamically adjust energy use according to market prices and production needs, enhancing resilience and efficiency.
Discover how battery storage can empower UK manufacturing to stay agile, competitive and boost sustainability in challenging energy markets.
