Enabling flexibility and dispatchability in renewable integration
BESS battery energy storage systems are essential for making renewable power truly reliable. They solve the critical challenge of intermittency by storing excess energy during periods of high generation and releasing it when demand peaks or when the sun is not shining, or the wind is not blowing. In this way, BESS acts as the stabilizing backbone of tomorrow’s energy systems, allowing countries, utilities, and industries to decarbonize without compromising security of supply. This technology also supports electrification, enables microgrids, and helps balance wholesale markets—making it a strategic solution for the global energy transition.
At Sener, we accompany our clients in projects that allow them to achieve maximum efficiency in the transition towards a renewable, low-emission model. We have more than three decades of experience in renewable generation and storage, including over 2,000 MWe of dispatchable solar thermal power. This unique experience demonstrates that we know how to make renewable energy manageable, efficient, and competitive.
What sets Sener apart is not only the scale of our track record but also the way we integrate digital tools with engineering expertise. We use advanced simulation platforms to model operating conditions, validate degradation profiles, and optimize lifetime performance. Our Energy Management System (EMS) ensures that batteries respond dynamically to grid signals and client needs, coordinating with renewables, demand, and auxiliary assets. By merging heritage with innovation, we provide solutions that are robust today and resilient tomorrow, enabling clients to navigate volatile markets and strict decarbonization targets with confidence.
Our role as pioneers in molten salt storage is proof of our ability to transform innovation into bankable projects, and today we extend that same capability to battery storage system companies and utilities worldwide.
Our methodology follows four stages: monitoring, optimization, transformation, and management. In the monitoring phase, we capture data on energy consumption, generation patterns, and grid behavior. This insight informs the optimization stage, where we run automated scenario simulations to size BESS correctly, define control strategies, and assess the economic impact. Transformation is where design becomes reality: we manage engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning with multidisciplinary teams. Finally, management ensures long-term performance, using digital monitoring to maximize availability, extend asset life, and secure financial returns.
For the correct sizing of storage facilities and through the simulation of the operation, we combine the optimization of their capacity with our knowledge of materials and structural calculations. This approach guarantees that every BESS is not only technically optimized but also capable of adapting to transient regimes and seasonal variations. In practice, this means projects can operate under changing demand, shifting regulations, or fluctuating resource availability without losing efficiency. Our lifecycle approach ensures that clients have a partner long after commissioning, with continuous improvement and adaptation built into every project.
We design storage battery systems that adapt to both large-scale and industrial needs. By combining them with our Energy Management System (EMS), we enable predictive and automatic control of assets, making energy more reliable and cost-effective.
