Many of our customers are in the midst of a major transition. They are rapidly electrifying their processes, facing nitrogen-related challenges or experiencing grid congestion. Within our Energy Storage innovation pillar, Bredenoord therefore sees the deployment of energy storage systems, such as batteries, as a crucial step in the energy transition. These systems make it possible to temporarily store generated energy and make it available at the right moment, which is essential in an energy system that is becoming increasingly dynamic and less predictable.

## Smart storage and distribution

We launched our very first Battery Box 15, the ESaver, in 2012. In 2018, its bigger brother, the Battery Box 600, was added to the range. We now offer a wide range of Battery Boxes and continue to innovate in order to further expand and optimise our fleet. In today’s energy mix, the storage and smart distribution of energy have become indispensable. That is why we develop not only battery solutions, but also advanced charging systems in which power conversion (such as DC/AC and DC/DC) plays an increasingly important role.

Our battery solutions are often used in combination with other energy sources, such as an existing grid connection, generators, methanol fuel cells or solar parks. Thanks to these hybrid applications, we can create a local smart grid with the Battery Box. This enables us to use available energy efficiently, significantly reduce CO₂ and NOₓ emissions, and minimise fuel consumption. In this way, we contribute to a cleaner, more reliable and future-proof energy supply.

The many applications of energy storage in batteries

Energy storage in batteries plays an important role in the energy transition. Storing clean energy in batteries allows us to provide quiet and emission free energy in areas with insufficient grid access or for clients who would like to work as sustainably as possible. Taking an important step in this energy transition, Bredenoord was among the first parties to develop a commercially usable energy storage system. The latest development in this field is the Battery Box.](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/insights/applications-of-energy-storage-in-batteries/ "The many applications of energy storage in batteries")[![Bredenoord Battery Box alongside solar panels](https://d214mxx6i7ojph.cloudfront.net/eyJidWNrZXQiOiJicmVkZW5vb3JkLXByb2QtYnVja2V0Iiwia2V5IjoiaW1hZ2VzL2hlcm8vb2xkX3NpdGUvQmF0dGVyeS1Cb3gtc29sYXItcGFuZWxzLmpwZyIsImVkaXRzIjp7ImpwZWciOnsicXVhbGl0eSI6ODIsInByb2dyZXNzaXZlIjp0cnVlLCJ0cmVsbGlzUXVhbnRpc2F0aW9uIjp0cnVlLCJvdmVyc2hvb3REZXJpbmdpbmciOnRydWUsIm9wdGltaXplU2NhbnMiOnRydWV9LCJyZXNpemUiOnsid2lkdGgiOjM3NSwiaGVpZ2h0IjozNzUsImZpdCI6ImNvdmVyIn19fQ==)

Hybrid solutions during the energy transition

The transition from fossil energy to sustainable energy is quite complex. It is impossible to take this step all at once. The transitional phase we currently find ourselves in is called the energy transition. This energy transition is characterized by the development and gradual implementation of new, innovative solutions. The past years many new possibilities arose that allow us to reduce both the emission of fossil fuels as well as the need for these fuels in the first place.](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/insights/hybrid-solutions-during-the-energy-transition/ "Hybrid solutions during the energy transition")

Charge 50 and the Battery Box: an energetic duo

When an event involving a large number of electric vehicles faced insufficient grid capacity, Bredenoord offered a smart solution. By combining the Charge 50 with two Battery Box 300L systems, visitors were able to charge their cars quickly, without the need for an additional grid connection or running generators.

Battery Box 600 powers world's strongest land-based crane

Mammoet's SK6000 - the world's strongest land-based crane - has been tested for fully electric operation. Testing was carried out using two 600kWh Battery Boxes from power supply specialist Bredenoord, connected parallel to deliver 1,000kW; around the same output as 20 electric cars. This proves that the giant crane can operate electrically, with a connection to the medium-voltage grid, shore power or batteries.

A zero-emission drilling under the train tracks in Amersfoort

More and more often projects take place on locations without grid access and in many of these situations setting up a genset no longer suffices: the rules surrounding local emissions can pose a challenge. Bredenoord gladly helps clients find a suitable solution, which we recently did for Heijmans during their project near the train tracks in Amersfoort.

Monitoring &amp; Control

Data and the Internet of Things (IoT) play a crucial role in making our energy supply more sustainable. Thanks to smart meters, sensors and algorithms, we can monitor and control energy consumption, production and storage in real time. This leads to optimisation, cost savings and a more efficient, sustainable energy system.](https://www.bredenoord.com/en/innovations/monitoring-and-control/ "Monitoring &amp; Control")[![Header Alternative Fuels Renewables](https://d214mxx6i7ojph.cloudfront.net/eyJidWNrZXQiOiJicmVkZW5vb3JkLXByb2QtYnVja2V0Iiwia2V5IjoiaW1hZ2VzL2hlcm8vb2xkX3NpdGUvSGVhZGVyLUFsdGVybmF0aXZlLUZ1ZWxzLVJlbmV3YWJsZXNfMjAyNi0wMS0yOC0xMzAzMzVfcnRycS5qcGciLCJlZGl0cyI6eyJqcGVnIjp7InF1YWxpdHkiOjgyLCJwcm9ncmVzc2l2ZSI6dHJ1ZSwidHJlbGxpc1F1YW50aXNhdGlvbiI6dHJ1ZSwib3ZlcnNob290RGVyaW5naW5nIjp0cnVlLCJvcHRpbWl6ZVNjYW5zIjp0cnVlfSwicmVzaXplIjp7IndpZHRoIjozNzUsImhlaWdodCI6Mzc1LCJmaXQiOiJjb3ZlciJ9fX0=)
