Greetings!
AES people are constantly implementing innovative ideas to solve complex issues, improve our operations and better serve our customers. At last month's global Congress on Innovation, Technical Excellence and Sustainable Practices the Energy Storage team took home first place in the Business Innovation category for their project: "Improved Commercial Availability, Lower Operating Costs, and Longer Asset Life through Proactive Management of Market Dispatch."
The project is a new type of control system that was designed, tested and placed into commercial operation for battery-based energy storage systems. The control system monitors conditions inside and outside the system and automatically implements an appropriate operating regime. The system, now two years old, as resulted in operational savings, higher availability and increased yearly revenues.
