 Energy Storage –
All Rounder Systems is Leading The Way in the Caribbean When it comes to alternative energy the obvious question is why the islands
are not already covered with wind turbines and solar panels? We have the sun
and the wind, so what is the problem?
Setting aside for the moment the cost of
converting over from petroleum based electricity to renewable, the practical
challenge is that useful sunlight is available only six or seven hours a
day, and the wind is strongest when we need the power the least. As a result
the electricity from the sun and wind is intermittent and variable with the
time of day and the weather.
As a result, and absent a way to store the electricity created by solar and
wind systems for use when and as it is needed, local utilities are forced to
run fossil fuel generators constantly to assure a steady flow of well
regulated electricity to the public.
All Rounder Systems is leading the way toward solving this energy storage
challenge through the use of proven state of the art technologies. With a
relatively small additional investment in energy storage we can
substantially reduce the need for base load support from fossil fuel
generators.
Energy storage is especially critical as part of a privately owned hybrid
system whereby a large commercial user can go “off the grid” thus gaining
complete control over their energy costs and quality. Only All Rounder
Systems is ready with off the shelf energy systems that make financial
sense.
