Advanced energy solutions - technology scouting

Advanced Energy Solutions (AES) is bp’s centre of excellence for the exploration, evaluation, development and delivery of energy storage and energy management system solutions. To do this AES are currently developing the Energy Storage and Energy Systems Integration Innovation Hub.

This will be a real-time digital sandbox, emulating potential system architectures for bp sites containing a mixture of battery storage, EV ultra-fast charging, microgrids and integrated renewable infrastructure (grid-scale solar collocation, onshore wind, offshore wind, hydrogen production, etc.).

The objective is to present bp’s key transition growth engine businesses with the capability to demonstrate the “full electron journey” including the real-time dynamics of operating energy storage and renewables assets with exposure to the relevant electricity power & flexibility markets.
