EMC doing a good job in Australia and now New Zealand.
Where to next?
"With the added capability the trial is expected to develop within the business, commercial opportunities for the company are anticipated, both domestically and internationally.
“Not only will the project deliver efficiencies to Alpine Energy’s core business, it provides the company with the chance to grow its internal capability in new technologies and to prepare to support emerging technologies by utilising battery storage technology.
“With battery storage technology decreasing in price faster than originally predicted, the future uptake of the technology is likely to be significant. The trial will therefore also create an increased understanding of how customer deployed battery storage might impact on an electricity network in New Zealand.
“This includes impact on local transformers, voltage performance, power quality and interoperability. There is also an opportunity to expand the trial to include solar PV, micro-wind and EV charging,” adds Carter."
