Earlier in 2023, Volvo Penta declared its provision of
subsystems for Battery Energy Storage needs, affirming its dedication to being a dependable partner for BESS manufacturers. Since then, the company has made notable strides in establishing its first customer relationships.
Battery energy storage will not only bridge the gap between critical energy needs, backup power with renewable energy sources but also play an important role in supporting the growing demand for charging infrastructure. Robust charging is essential for the widespread adoption of electric vehicles and industrial applications, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable future. This aligns with Volvo Penta’s multi-tenet industrial net-zero strategy, which spans the adoption of alternative fuels,
electrification of off-highway applications, battery energy storage subsystems and fuel cell technology development.
To grasp these net-zero opportunities, Volvo Penta will collaborate with
TecnoGen in their BESS to support charging infrastructure for electric heavy-duty vehicles. “We’ve had a positive track record using Volvo Penta’s reliable power solutions in our generators, which is why we trust that our foray into battery energy storage will be an exciting evolution of our relationship,” adds Renato Bruno, CEO BGG. “Our combined expertise will complement charging infrastructure, a critical step towards industrial electrification and bolstering clean energy integration in the long run.”
