EDP Installs 12MW Battery for Bondalti in Portugal

• EDP powers Bondalti's green future with a 12-MW battery system, boosting energy efficiency and sustainability in Portugal's chemical industry.

EDP Energias de Portugal SA will install a 12-MW/12-MWh battery storage system for Bondalti Capital SA, a Portuguese chemical company. This initiative aims to enhance energy efficiency and sustainability within Bondalti's operations.

The battery system will support Bondalti's energy needs by storing and managing electricity, contributing to a more stable and reliable power supply. This project reflects EDP's commitment to advancing renewable energy solutions and supporting industrial partners in reducing their carbon footprint.

How Will EDP's 12-MW Battery System Enhance Bondalti's Energy Efficiency and Sustainability?

• Energy Storage and Management: The 12-MW battery system will allow Bondalti to store excess energy generated during low-demand periods and use it during peak demand, optimizing energy consumption and reducing reliance on the grid.
• Grid Stability: By providing a more stable and reliable power supply, the battery system will help mitigate fluctuations in energy availability, ensuring consistent operations for Bondalti.
• Cost Efficiency: The ability to store energy and use it during peak times can lead to significant cost savings on energy bills, as Bondalti can avoid higher charges associated with peak electricity usage.
• Carbon Footprint Reduction: By integrating battery storage, Bondalti can increase its use of renewable energy sources, thereby reducing its carbon emissions and contributing to sustainability goals.
• Enhanced Energy Independence: The system will provide Bondalti with greater control over its energy resources, reducing dependency on external energy suppliers and enhancing energy security.
• Support for Renewable Integration: The battery system will facilitate the integration of renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind, into Bondalti's energy mix, promoting cleaner energy use.
• Innovation and Leadership: This project positions Bondalti as a leader in adopting innovative energy solutions, setting an example for other industrial companies in the region.
• Alignment with EDP's Goals: The initiative aligns with EDP's strategy to promote renewable energy and support industrial partners in achieving sustainability targets, reinforcing its role as a key player in the energy transition.
