Keynote Address: Critical Advances in Battery Energy Storage Technology

Advancements in Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are being driven by the digitalisation of energy infrastructure, enabling enhanced energy optimisation and more efficient asset management. Real-time data analytics and predictive maintenance are improving both performance and longevity. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is further revolutionising the sector by enabling smarter decision-making, predictive algorithms for demand forecasting, and optimised charge/discharge cycles. These innovations allow for more precise load-shifting and peak shaving, reducing costs and enhancing energy efficiency.  

 

Integrating BESS with energy management systems optimises power production, balancing supply with demand, and driving down overall energy costs. This session explores how these technological breakthroughs are shaping the future of energy storage and management. 

 

Discussion Points:  

  • How is digitalisation in Battery Energy Storage Systems transforming energy optimisation and asset management? 
  • What role does Artificial Intelligence play in improving the efficiency and decision-making of next-generation Battery Energy Storage Systems? 
  • How can energy management systems and Battery Energy Storage technology optimise power production through peak shaving and load-shifting to reduce energy costs?
