Ebusco has introduced a flexible bi-directional energy storage and charging solution at Busworld Europe.
The Ebusco Energy FLEX has been designed to minimise invasive construction methods for the provision of electrical infrastructure, as it does not require permanent installation.
It also enables operators to directly store renewable energy for convenient and cost-effective recharging.
The unit has a capacity of 184 kWh and a charging speed of 60 kW to efficiently recharge an electric bus between operations.
As global electrification efforts intensify, this solution can help combat the challenges of an overtaxed electricity grid.
Currently, the increasing availability of renewable energy sources often outpaces the grid’s capacity. To overcome this issue, the Ebusco Energy FLEX can be directly connected to green energy providers such as solar panels and wind turbines.
It can then be used to efficiently store surplus and self-generated energy for availability at peak demand.
Peter Bijvelds, CEO of Ebusco, said:Our longstanding goal has consistently been to make electric driving as widely accessible as possible. We see the challenges entailed by the electric transition and are therefore thrilled to introduce Ebusco Energy FLEX, an innovative solution designed to meet the current demand for efficient energy use in the market.
