Polarium Energy Solutions AB

The Australian energy market is swiftly transitioning from a centralised, fossil fuel-dependent model to one reliant on flexible, renewable sources such as solar and wind, posing challenges in predicting energy production and demand. This unpredictability in energy supply is something telecommunications networks need to consider to ensure their network remains resilient.

At Powerbox Australia, we are addressing these challenges faced by the Australian Telecommunications sector, by harnessing the power of Polarium's Smart lithium-ion battery technology.

As the Australian energy market quickly transitions to renewable sources to provide Australia's growing energy needs, Polarium is well placed to offer energy storage solutions to support a number of applications, including:

1. Backup / Reserve Power (UPS): Polarium batteries can be easily incorporated into Industrial UPS systems to ensure reliable backup power, surpassing traditional options like lead-acid batteries or diesel generators. With a superior CO2 footprint, total cost of ownership, and energy density, Polarium batteries guarantee secure power supply during outages, enhancing your system's resilience against unforeseen power outages.

2. Stand Alone Power Systems (SAPS) and Micro-Grids: SAPS and Micro-grids are a reliable, flexible and resilient de-centralised approach to providing energy infrastructure in areas where traditional grid is prone to outages, limited or not available. Systems typically comprise of a combination of renewable energy (solar + wind), battery energy storage and diesel generators.

Polarium's lithium-ion batteries offer reliable utility grade energy storage solutions for such setups, ensuring uninterrupted power supply for critical operations. Powerbox has been working across Australia designing and integrating a number of unique SAPS and Micro Grids based around Polarium's lithium-ion technology.

3. Frequency Control Ancillary Services (FCAS): FCAS involves leveraging distributed energy storage assets, to support grid frequency regulation. By responding to grid frequency fluctuations in real-time, Energy Storage Solutions powered by Polarium batteries can help stabilise the grid and mitigate power supply imbalances, while also creating new revenue streams for asset owners.
