Energy storage systems enable critical equipment to continue operating during power outages and, on normal days, allow businesses to store excess solar power and significantly reduce their electricity costs.

How Industrial Batteries Help Businesses During Power Outages
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) instantly take over the power supply to critical infrastructure the moment the grid goes down:
- in retail and stores: they maintain uninterrupted power to refrigerated display cases, freezers, and checkout areas;
- in office buildings: they keep server racks, corporate networks, and essential communication systems running;
- at manufacturing facilities: they keep individual production lines running, where a sudden shutdown could result in the spoilage of raw materials or damage to machinery.
What to Consider Before Installing a Battery Storage System
To ensure that the battery system fully meets the business’s needs, engineers must calculate key parameters in advance:
- clearly define the list of equipment that requires mandatory redundancy;
- calculate the required duration of autonomous operation without an external power supply;
- program a constant, non-reducible reserve capacity in the battery in case of an unexpected emergency outage.
The Benefits of Battery Storage on Normal Days Without Blackouts
According to DTEK, the benefits of using these systems remain even when the power supply is stable. The storage systems accumulate excess “green” energy generated by the facility’s own solar power plants (SPP) or charge at the lowest nighttime tariffs, allowing for a significant reduction in peak commercial costs during daytime hours.
How Battery Management Is Automated
Through the YASNO Power digital platform, an intelligent EMS (Energy Management System) manages various battery operation scenarios. It analyzes the enterprise’s current consumption profile, generation output, and battery charge levels in real time, automatically switching modes to maximize energy efficiency.
