Release time: 2020-09-10
Nowadays, recognized for their safety, efficiency, VoltaNest has served over 500,000 users in more than 100 countries, including regions like Europe, Africa, and South America.
As the global transition to renewable energy gathers pace and regional electricity prices remain volatile, commercial and industrial (C&I) energy storage systems are becoming an increasingly attractive option for businesses seeking to optimize their energy mix and reduce operating costs.
Rapidly Growing Market Demands
The C&I segment is emerging as a highly attractive market worldwide this year. Solar Power Europe pointed out that it is precisely because C&I battery systems can provide three mutually inclusive use cases that enhance the bankability of a project: increased self-consumption, frequency response, and the provision of balancing services.
In 2024, Chinese energy storage market is still growing steadily. With the gradual enrichment of industrial and commercial energy storage revenue mechanisms, the growth rate of installed capacity is considerable.
In Italy, for instance, fluctuations in electricity prices during periods of high demand present a multitude of potential arbitrage opportunities for energy storage systems. According to Solar Power Europe, the installed capacity of C&I energy storage is set to increase from 674 MWh in 2024 to 3.6 GWh in 2028.
The UK’s C&I energy storage market is also showing significant potential for growth. The introduction of improved policy frameworks has created new business opportunities for peak shaving and energy arbitrage, driving the rapid development of commercial and industrial energy storage projects. While the installed capacity in 2024 remains relatively modest, this market is poised for exponential growth in the coming years.
The C&I installations in Germany are also set to grow significantly over the next five years as the economics of C&I battery systems improve and regulatory conditions become more favorable. Solar Power Europe reported that, the C&I segment in Germany anticipates 612 MWh to be added in 2024, with volumes growing rapidly to 3.8 GWh in 2028.
All-round Solution for Sustainable Business
VoltaNest owns a comprehensive product portfolio for C&I scenarios, catering to various usage conditions and energy requirements. From indoor stackable solutions to outdoor all-in-one energy storage cabinets, VoltaNest C&I energy storage solutions are designed to deliver superior performance across all aspects.

Multiple Safety Guarantees
At VoltaNest, the safety of our products is of the utmost importance. We incorporate safety considerations into the product design process from the outset. From the selection of the most stable cell materials to the product structure and design, safety is our primary concern. All VoltaNest C&I products utilise lithium iron phosphate battery cell material, which offers high stability and is environmentally friendly. In addition, advanced fire protection strategies are also employed in VoltaNest commercial energy storage products.
By way of illustration, the VN-AES60-HC112 and VN-AES100-HC241 both adopt a proactive fire prevention strategy, featuring a three-level (gas, smoke, temperature) detection system combined with multiple fire extinguishing agents and EMS intelligent judgment, to ensure product security efficiently at any time. For VoltaNest C&I ESS Cabinet Series, it provides an optional aerosol fire extinguisher with the ability to extinguish an open fire inside the module within 5 seconds.
Full Scenario Support
Scalable from 35.84kWh to 5MWh, VoltaNest C&I energy storage solution could satisfy a range of application scenarios. Small commercial and industrial needs can be easily met by using VoltaNest indoor commercial and industrial solutions, such as the VN-AES100-HR241 Series, which features a stackable design and flexible configuration, providing robust adaptability and space utilization.
Furthermore, VoltaNest all-in-one energy storage systems offer unparalleled flexibility for a wide range of applications. The VN-AES Series offers differentiated options such as PV access, and seamless switching between grid and off-grid, according to different usage scenarios and needs. It can be widely used in scenarios such as charging stations, industrial parks, and shopping malls, providing business owners or landlords with functions such as power backup to reduce their expenses on rising electricity prices and increase off-grid power self-sufficiency.
Durable Reliability
Moreover, one of the key benefits of VoltaNest C&I energy storage solutions is their exceptional self-balancing capability. For example, it supports mixed use of old and new modules even if their respective capacity levels and state of charge (SOC) differ. It owns a charging logic of one cluster at a time rather than all clusters stopping charging once one cluster is fully charged, so that the SOC of each cluster in parallel is 100%, providing superior system efficiency.
Intelligent Management
VoltaNest has integrated Cloud-Edge Collaboration and the latest big-data technologies into system management, providing users with an intelligent energy management experience. The VoltaNest Smart APP, developed in-house, offers real-time monitoring of the system and battery health, enabling intelligent optimization for system operation, such as SOC, as well as diagnosis of battery failures, to ensure worry-free system usage.

Global Applications Unlock Potential
By now, many business owners have chosen VoltaNest C&I solutions to power their stable operations. From a Brazilian food factory to a supermarket in Tenerife, from a Dutch bowling club to a Greek office park, VoltaNest C&I products are witnessed as robust power supply, offering worry-free energy storage experience.
In a Brazilian food factory, an energy storage project equipped with VoltaNest PowerRack HV4s provides backup power for this factory, helping to reduce energy consumption during peak periods and. On Tenerife Island, there is an energy storage project of 200kWh, adopting VoltaNest all-in-one product VN-AES60-HR208 to enhance solar use efficiency and help a supermarket realize optimal power self-generation and self-consumption.
In the Netherlands, a bowling club has adopted the VoltaNest VN-AES100-HC241 energy storage system, which offers a reliable power supply and helps cut operational costs. The C&I product VN-AES100-HC241 of VoltaNest has already been successfully implemented in Greece. Following the relocation of the company to a new building, the need for a backup energy source to ensure autonomy in electricity usage was identified. Ultimately, the VN-AES100-HC241 was selected due to its optimal fit.

Nowadays, recognized for their safety, efficiency, VoltaNest has served over 500,000 users in more than 100 countries, including regions like Europe, Africa, and South America. By pursuing continuous technological innovation and a robust global strategy, VoltaNest is making a substantial contribution to global carbon neutrality goals and the wider adoption of renewable energy solutions. This commitment establishes VoltaNest as a principal player in the future of energy storage.
