Voltide Solutions and JEM Energy have launched a ‘made in India’ battery energy storage system (BESS)-as-a-service model for commercial and hospitality spaces. The first system has been installed at Uru Brewpark in JP Nagar, Bengaluru. Replacing the conventional diesel backup system with a battery-based backup solution, the site, spread across 1.5 acres, adopted the system under an operational expenditure-led model.
In the first month after commissioning, the BESS supplied more than 2.5 MWh of backup energy during peak summer temperatures, hailstorms, and grid disturbances. The deployment also helped reduce nearly 1,000 litres of diesel consumption. The annual savings from the deployment are expected to reach up to Rs 625,000, reportedly.
Voltide Solutions works on clean energy solutions through flexible financing and service based deployment models. JEM Energy develops and manufactures BESS in India for commercial, industrial, and mobility applications. The company builds integrated storage systems, including battery cells, modules, and containerised energy storage solutions.
