I wrote a series of white papers for this Singapore-based battery technology company, which primarily serves the construction and mining industries.

Emissions reductions – there’s good, there’s better and there’s ESS
From cost and efficiency through to safety and control, there are many benefits to deploying battery energy storage systems (ESS) to supplement or replace diesel generators. One of the biggest pluses – and for many, the most important benefit of all – is the positive effect on the environment.
There are many factors and variables that go into making up a carbon footprint, such as manufacture, delivery and disposal of equipment. But for the purposes of this white paper we’re looking purely at tailpipe emissions – what’s produced while the equipment is being used.
What’s the level of emissions with battery energy storage systems ESS? Easy – it’s zero. They produce no tailpipe emissions whatsoever. No carbon, but also no NOx, SO2 or particulate matter (PM) emissions either.
Diesel generators are a very different story, however…
