Energy Solutions (UK) Ltd

New Year, New Energy Independence! More and more businesses are recognising the benefits of off-grid living and working, and the operational advantages of energy storage. With growing concerns about energy security, rising costs, and the need to reduce environmental impact, embracing self-sustaining energy consumption is becoming increasingly attractive. Energy Solutions provides systems to store excess energy, helping homes and businesses that generate their own renewable energy become more energy self-sufficient. We’ve assisted companies of all sizes to achieve off-grid energy independence and reach their desired sustainability goals. In 2025, consider these key advantages: • Reduced reliance on the grid: Hybrid power solutions combining renewables (like solar) with traditional sources and energy storage can cover up to 70% of your energy needs, with generators providing backup during peak demand. • Lower energy costs: Store excess energy generated during peak production for use when renewables are less productive, minimising reliance on expensive grid power. • Enhanced energy security: Minimise disruptions from grid outages and enjoy a reliable, uninterrupted power supply. • Reduced environmental impact: Minimise your carbon footprint by reducing reliance on fossil fuels. 💡We also recommend taking advantage of government incentives and support programmes for renewable energy and off-grid solutions. These can help offset the costs of transitioning to off-grid systems. Ready to make the switch? We can help you navigate the transition.

Next month's Energy Summit will highlight the fundamental role that energy storage will play on the path to net zero. Businesses in the UK are expected to take several proactive steps to manage their energy consumption. 📋We’ve compiled a poll. We hope you can take part as we’re interested in your Energy Storage plans for the year. The 10th Energy Storage Summit takes place next month in London and aims to highlight the fundamental role that energy storage will play on the path to net zero. This year, businesses in the UK are expected to take several proactive steps to manage their energy consumption and costs effectively: ⚡ Adopting Energy Storage Solutions: Energy storage systems are on the rise as businesses look to reduce energy costs and ensure a reliable power supply. Excess energy is generated during off-peak hours and used during peak demand times. ⚡Investing in Renewable Energy: Businesses that invest in renewable energy sources like solar and wind can reduce dependency on the grid and lower energy expenses by generating their own clean energy. ⚡Implementing Energy Management Systems (EMS): Advanced EMS can monitor, control, and optimise energy usage in real-time. These systems help businesses identify inefficiencies and reduce energy consumption. ⚡Upgrading and optimising: By expanding their energy storage ability, businesses can improve overall operational efficiency and, as energy needs grow, ensure they meet future demands without needing major upgrades. By adopting these strategies, businesses can take control of their energy consumption and costs whilst contributing to the UK’s sustainability goals. We are keen to learn how businesses plan to take control of their energy consumption and costs and which proactive steps for energy storage are top of the agenda.

🔧 Today’s Tech Tip: Did you know - the SmartShunt can be configured as a battery monitor or a DC energy meter? When used as a DC energy meter, it can measure the output of devices like wind turbines or alternators and track the consumption of specific loads such as electric drives, DC circuits, or water heaters. 🤔 New to SmartShunts? A SmartShunt is a battery monitor integrated into a shunt, reducing the need for separate monitoring displays and offering ease of installation. The device measures voltage and current to determine a battery’s state of charge and remaining time. It also logs historical data, including charge cycles and the deepest discharge. The top-performing device is the Victron Smartshunt, available in 300amp to 2000amp with IP21 or IP65 options.

Hybrid Power: The Next Step – A Piece of the Puzzle The adoption of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) on construction sites and beyond has surged over the past five years. These systems have played a crucial role in reducing generator run times, leading to lower emissions and operational costs. However, the BESS is just one piece of the puzzle. No matter how energy is generated and stored, inefficiencies in its use result in unnecessary emissions that could have been avoided. Addressing energy waste is essential to fully realising the benefits of hybrid power. For over 15 years, Energy Solutions has been supplying BESS units across various industries, continually enhancing the surrounding ecosystem. A key advancement is our intelligent distribution system, which empowers users to better understand in real time their energy consumption and optimise usage. By strategically managing energy distribution, we minimise or eliminate waste, ensuring a more efficient and sustainable power solution. For more information on our Energy Management Ecosystem please contact us.

Lithium batteries are a game changer for onboard power. Our latest case study is a great example! Husband and wife team Simon and Joan Mansell are long-distance travellers and needed a reliable battery for van life in their Mercedes camper. During their adventures, they are faced with needing power for off-grid services and stop-offs. On the road full-time, they wanted a battery system that would last. With trips distancing 15 to 18,000 kilometres, discover how they succeeded in battery longevity by reading the full case study here 👉 https://bit.ly/42cHefp 👈 #offgrid #batterypower #vanlife
