What Are Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)?
Battery energy storage systems are installations that store electrical energy and supply it to EV charging infrastructure.
Why It Matters
They enable scalable charging and reduce grid impact.
How It Works
Energy is stored during low demand and discharged during peak charging periods.
Where It Is Used
• Commercial charging hubs
• Fleet depots
Key Advantages
• Grid support
• Reduced peak demand
