The Zen energy system is launching a world today-
The first energy storage system that enables customers to store and use electricity 24 hours a day.
The company's freepower bank will be unveiled at the all-energy conference in Melbourne, attended by Prime Minister Jay withermere and Minister of Innovation Tom kutsantis.
ZEN announced for the first time in April that it is expected that these devices, which are undergoing final testing with SA Power network, will be available by January.
Assembled in Adelaide, Freedom power bank will use a computer-controlled battery storage system to capture energy generated from wind, solar or power grids at low levels
Requirement cycle, allowing reuse later.
"The technology has changed the rules of the game in the renewable energy industry and has the potential to change the way individuals and communities use electricity in the future," said ZEN chief executive Richard Turner . ".
ZEN, developed in partnership with Greensmith Energy Management Systems in the United States, plans to release four models suitable for residential, commercial, utility and remote communities.
The home, which can store 20 KW of its energy, is expected to cost about $30,000, and ZEN wants it to be practical --
Large units will provide solutions for power companies trying to meet peak power demand.
"By using a battery storage solution, ZEN offers utilities the option to delay expensive infrastructure upgrades and improve supply reliability," Mr Turner said . ".
ZEN said it expects the units to increase turnover by $8 million over three years and double the number of employees.
Kane Thornton, deputy chief executive of the Clean Energy Commission, said that increasing the use of energy storage can help meet peak power demand, which is one of the main reasons for the increase in electricity prices.
"It's great that a local company has the vision to develop its own innovative energy storage technology," he said . ".
"In response to rising electricity prices, the free power bank will provide customers with more options.
Prime Minister Jay Weatherill said companies like ZEN are helping the country to stand at the forefront of advanced manufacturing and renewable energy technologies.
