Breaking down barriers to electrification in food & drink with battery energy storage (BESS)
Across the food and supply chain, businesses face growing pressure to reduce carbon emissions, manage rising energy costs, and move away from natural gas. But with a constrained and ageing grid, making that transition is far from straightforward.
In this webinar, Powerstar explores how Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are playing a critical role in decarbonising the sector - helping producers, manufacturers, retailers and the wider supply chain overcome energy constraints, electrify operations, and store cleaner, cheaper energy.
What you’ll discover:
- Why grid capacity is a major barrier to electrification and sustainability
- The 4 main use cases of energy storage systems
- How BESS can act as a buffer and unlock flexibility across your site
- Practical steps to reduce reliance on natural gas and use cleaner energy
- Real-world examples of how energy storage can support decarbonisation without waiting for infrastructure upgrades
