AlphaESS enhances Hills Wildlife Sanctuary's resilience with battery storage
AlphaESS has announced a partnership with Hills Wildlife Sanctuary in Australia to supply a solar and battery system. This system will provide energy independence and reduce the sanctuary's power bills. It ensures critical backup power during grid outages, such as those caused by bushfires, allowing continuous animal care. The installation of the StaX commercial energy storage solution is scheduled for the coming months.
AlphaESS has announced a collaboration with Hills Wildlife Sanctuary in Australia. This partnership involves the installation of a comprehensive solar and battery system. The objective is to enhance the sanctuary's energy independence and strengthen its resilience, particularly during periods of extreme weather or bushfires.
For a wildlife sanctuary like Hills Wildlife Sanctuary, which spans 35 acres of bushland bordering a national park, a constant power supply is vital. Clinic equipment and animal enclosures require power around the clock. The area is prone to bushfires, where power outages often coincide with peak demand for animal care.
The system to be installed, a commercial StaX energy storage solution, will store solar energy generated during the day for nighttime use. Furthermore, it will ensure the operation of essential systems during grid interruptions. The installation of this system is scheduled for the coming months.
Mr. Dong Lin, Chief Operations Officer and Vice-President of AlphaESS, emphasized that their energy solutions support local communities and improve resilience. He stated: "AlphaESS has been building Australia’s energy future since 2015. Our energy solutions support local communities and improve resilience." Mr. Ben Dessen, Director of Hills Wildlife Sanctuary, confirmed that their work does not cease during power outages, and animals often need them most at such times. He values the practical partnership that offers lower monthly costs and the assurance of continuous power supply.
This collaboration builds resilience for a site that cannot afford to lose power, generates savings for a non-profit organization, and increases the sanctuary's capacity to respond to future bushfire seasons. It serves as a working example of how behind-the-meter storage can help community facilities, which carry a significant load during emergencies, build their own energy independence. AlphaESS has operated in Australia since 2015 and provides systems with a ten-year warranty.
