Solar-BESS Hybrid Systems Advisory
Key Decisions SgurrEnergy Supports
BESS sizing
Why: Battery capacity and duration affect revenue, curtailment, degradation and CAPEX. How: Sizing review, use-case assessment, dispatch modelling and degradation sensitivity.
DC vs AC architecture
Why: Architecture affects clipping recovery, controls, metering, grid interface and future augmentation. How: Architecture comparison, interconnection review and control strategy advisory.
Dispatch strategy
Why: Commercial value depends on how the battery charges, discharges and cycles. How: Dispatch profile review, revenue-stack assessment and operational constraint analysis.
Safety and compliance
Why: Battery safety affects permitting, insurance, lender confidence and operational risk. How: Safety and fire-risk review, layout spacing review, standards and compliance advisory.
Grid integration
Why: Hybrid controls must support export limits, reactive power and grid code compliance. How: Grid studies, plant controller review and commissioning support.
