how a p.e.i. company plans to cut its electric bill in half - battery energy storage system

A P. E. I.
The company is learning green energy on board and applying it to land.
Aspin Kemp & Associates is testing a new micro
Power grid system facilities in Poole point.
It uses solar panels and battery storage arrays to generate electricity.
Mike Newman, marketing manager at Aspin Kemp & Associates, said: "This is the local power generation . " He called the project a prototype.
Aspin Kemp has formed a major partnership with the German company Aspin Kemp, which has received nearly $3 m of new power projects from ACOA, "which will definitely reduce our costs, power the entire manufacturing facility through solar panels and energy storage.
"There are currently 60 panels, but a total of 610 will be available later this spring.
It is estimated that solar power can reduce the cost of the company's electricity by half.
By improving the energy efficiency of large ship engines, Aspin Kemp has earned a worldwide reputation.
"These ships that we are working on, they are large drilling ships or service support ships, and they have a lot of power generation needs," Newman said . ".
"So a lot of the work we do with battery, energy storage and hybrid technology is something we can integrate.
"Most of the ships that the huge fuel bill company works on have millions of dollars in huge fuel bills.
"We enter the vessel and in some cases we have significantly reduced the fuel consumption of the vessel up to 50," Newman said . ".
"We are using our power system to run these plants more efficiently.
"The first part of the solar array has been installed in front of the company's manufacturing plant in Poole point. "Micro-
"The grid is a very new technology, it is a transition from generating electricity in large factories to distributing electricity," Newman said . ". "What micro-
The grid is much smaller, so it's a growing landscape.
The company recently completed a micro project.
Canadian military wastewater production grid project.
Jared MacDonald, business development manager at Aspin Kemp, said: "They want a system that can basically run independently without the need for diesel . ".
"So the design of this system allows all the energy needed to be generated and stored in batteries by solar panels.
"The company has now delivered the microgrid to CFB Gagetown at N. Oromocto. B.
Investigations have begun on other projects.
"Our needs are very broad, not just the needs of the Canadian military," McDonald said . ".
The progress of battery storage "from this scale to powering an island country, there are a variety of different systems that are completely scalable and we are very interested in taking advantage of it.
The key, Newman said, is the progress in battery storage so that solar energy can be stored even if the sun does not shine.
Newman said: "The challenge is definitely that the price of energy storage has been going on for some time, but this price is falling exponentially at a rapid rate, which is why many players are working on this issue.
"It's really getting to the point where it's becoming more economically viable.
"Aspin Kemp has received government support for energy projects.
"The technology we're working on is actually about going.
Reduce dependence on fossil fuels. "He said. MORE P. E. I.
