Expanding the grid capacity, however, is timeconsuming and costly, and makes the development of charging infrastructure challenging. Although self-generated energy in the form of wind, solar, biomass or hydro power helps to increase the available electricity of the grid, it is often unpredictable. Therefore, balancing generation and consumption is key and this is where Siemens provide the solution with SieStorage Neo Allowing high power charging on weak grid connections, storing self-generated energy, balancing peak loads, smart and ef cient load management, and power factor correction – these are only some of the key features of SIESTORAGE NEO. The base con guration of the battery storage system provides 184 kW of power, with a capacity of 164 kWh. This can be extended up to 368 kW of power and a capacity of 656 kWh at any point in time, with various options for project speci c customisation. SieStorage Neo distinguishes itself with its compact and space-saving design, containing all components in one housing. Its proven industry components – made in Germany – make it robust against outer in uences and thus a reliable system for any location. Its modularity and scalability allow for different storage power, capacity and further set-up options, all speci cally tailored to your needs. With Siemens cost-ef cient energy storage solution, you can optimise your CAPEX and OPEX by avoiding expensive extension of the grid connection and costly power peaks.
