Honeywell has revealed its Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) Platform, which integrates Honeywell asset monitoring, distributed energy resource management, supervisory control and analytics functionality to enable organisations to accurately forecast and optimise their overall energy use.

The BESS platform is ideal for a wide range of commercial and industrial companies, independent power producers and utilities.

Eren Ergin, general manager, Renewables and Distributed Assets, Honeywell Process Solutions, said:”Honeywell has delivered large, turnkey automation and control projects around the world.

“We’re delivering renewables and distributed assets projects such as our Battery Energy Storage System Platform with a similar turnkey approach. From the physical storage assets to the automation software being utilised, customers can benefit from Honeywell performance-based guarantees.”

The BESS platform improves grid stability and sustainability while decreasing supply costs. If a generator fails or goes offline for any reason, the platform reduces the need to bring additional, non-renewable power generators online. In this scenario, a remote facility can maintain operations as the platform runs in parallel with traditional generators. The system can then restart the disconnected generator or initiate back-up generator sets before returning to standby mode.

In addition, the BESS platform can reduce the need for non-renewable power sources such as gas turbines and diesel generators and their associated high gas consumption rates, contributing to a smaller carbon footprint.
