Atlas Copco expands energy storage systems portfolio

ATLAS Copco has announced the launch of five new models of its lithium-ion Energy Storage Systems (ESS).

The systems are said to be suited to ‘noise-sensitive’ environments and enable operators to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

The additions include a larger ZBC 300-300 unit and a smaller line of battery-based storage systems, the ZPB 45-60, ZBP 45-75, ZBP 15-60 models, and the ZBP 2000 with two flexible solar panels.

“Our customers are increasingly seeking clean energy solutions to be more sustainable and efficient in their operations,” said Bárbara Gregorio, marketing manager power & energy at Atlas Copco’s power and flow division. “Atlas Copco has been at the forefront of power generation for many decades, and we are renowned for our high performance and high-quality equipment.

“The move towards battery storage solutions is a natural evolution for us and we have continued to develop the ESS portfolio using the best battery technology for our targeted applications, making the benefits of clean power available to more applications and for new opportunities in our sector.”
