Context

Since 2023, BeePlanet Factory has partnered with Sirea to promote energy storage in France by integrating batteries from electric vehicles. This strategic alliance allows industrial and commercial companies optimize self-consumption, reduce energy costs and move towards a more sustainable model.

At BeePlanet Factory we not only supply energy storage systems, but also we provide our experience in engineering and technological development to ensure efficient and safe management. In this case, our BMS (Battery Management System) technology allows a mainstreaming Robusta de las batteries in Sirea's solutions, ensuring optimal performance and extended system life.

Strategic Alliance to Promote Renewable Energies

Sirea, a leading French company in energy system integration, has become a key partner in our mission of international expansion and in promoting the use of electric vehicle batteries for energy storage.

Thanks to this collaboration, we have developed systems in France that allow:

  • Intelligent self-consumption: Store excess solar energy and use it when it is most needed.
  • Cost optimization: Charge batteries during off-peak hours and discharge them at peak times to reduce your electricity bill.
  • Flexible energy management: Real-time monitoring and control to improve operational efficiency and adapt consumption to user needs.

Success Story: Off-peak Storage and Loading in a Concrete Plant

One of our most recent projects was developed in a concrete production plant in France, with an annual solar production of 199 MWh, which faced significant energy challenges:

  • Use of solar surplus: Maximize the use of solar energy generated to reduce dependence on the electrical grid.
  • Optimization of electricity consumption: Minimize the impact of energy rates by charging batteries during off-peak hours and discharging them at peak times.
  • Efficient supply management: Avoid peaks in demand and reduce additional costs derived from irregular consumption.

Solution

We implement an energy storage system with:

  • Storage capacity: 240 kWh (192 kWh usable)
  • Installed power: 120 kW

Achieved Results

Significant energy savings

  • Direct self-consumption: 95 MWh
  • Stored energy: 52 MWh

Positive economic impact

  • Initial investment (CAPEX): 195,000€
  • Annual savings on electricity bills: 28,000€
  • Return on investment (ROI): 7 years

Increased efficiency and sustainability

  • Reducing dependence on the power grid
  • Improved supply stability
  • Lower CO₂ emissions thanks to the use of renewable energy
