BESS applications are commonly divided into “front-of-the-meter” and “behind-the-meter” applications. Both can be paired with different BESS at different capacities. Front-of-the-meter BESS refers to energy storage at the energy generation and transmission sites, i.e., renewable energy and utility grids, which require large-size grid-scale BESS. On the other hand, behind-the-meter BESS locates the energy storage at the sites of energy consumption, i.e., industrial and commercial locations, or homes with smaller BESS. This is where Advantech IoT technologies come into play. For BESS at a large or small scale, users can always find the right IoT solution for the BESS application. By leveraging Advantech’s extensive range of sensing, communication, and computing products, Advantech is helping to build sustainable BESS that is reliable and flexible.
