Innovative Company Leads the Way for Battery Storage Technologies Crucial for Alternative Energy Demands of the Future and Energy Management Today

Without question, one of the largest issues going into the 21st Century is energy. Energy demands of the world continue to grow while resources continue to shrink. As we look to alternative sources to power our lives, the storage and management of that energy becomes more and more critical.

Leading the way in their industry, Greensmith Energy Management Systems, http://www.greensmith.us.com, has implemented a number of energy management solutions for utility companies and end users as well. At the core of its services is its proprietary Battery Operating System (BOS3), and control software, which provides battery monitoring, protection, and controls for deployment in a range of applications.

Improvements in battery storage and management technologies allow for the storage of alternative energy, like wind and solar, making these sources of green energy viable solutions to the energy crisis.

In one example of incorporation with ‘green’ alternative energy, three Greensmith installations combine smart EV charging stations and rooftop solar photovoltaic load following. The company’s solutions are configurable, modular, and scalable from residential and commercial installations, all the way up to utility scale deployments.

As batteries continue to improve, the Greensmith solutions continue to work with them. This is because their technology is battery-agnostic allowing them to offer multiple battery options to its customers today, and new options in the future.

According to the company, Greensmith is unique in its ability to design systems around applications, while its competitors approaches tend to develop capabilities around the functionality of one specific battery. The end result is effective solutions for its customers as well as a high level of flexibility, with solutions that typically rapidly install in a matter of hours.

For utility companies, the efficient storage and management of energy more crucial than ever – both to keep energy cost low and to conserve the energy resources available.

“Grid operators now understand that energy storage is more than just batteries and inverters. They realize that intelligent control systems and sophisticated software improve the performance of both new and existing grid assets. What’s more, maximizing the benefits of energy storage means having the technology to manage and optimize a distributed, data-rich network. Coupled with our battery-agnostic approach, these capabilities have led to our rapid growth and adoption thus far,” said John Jung, Greensmith CEO.

Founded in 2008, today, the company provides distributed energy storage systems to fourteen customers, including eight electric utilities. Looking to the future, the company anticipates a continued increase in sales.
