Petrol station BP Middelweerd has been a household name in Harmelen and the surrounding area for 100 years. With many passers-by every day and a growing demand for electric mobility, the petrol station plays a crucial role in the energy transition. In collaboration with ProfiNRG an important sustainability step was taken at this location by installing a battery system and smart charging solutions.
At an earlier stage, the roof of BP Middelweerd has already been solar panels installed. This generation of renewable energy, combined with the new battery storage system, now forms an efficient and forward-looking on-site energy network.
For this project, ProfiNRG handled the complete supply, installation and commissioning of a battery with a capacity of 108 kW and a capacity of 215 kWh, including support in linking with the Energy management system (EMS) from Censo. This integration allows efficient control of the energy supply at the filling station, with optimal utilisation of locally stored energy and smart control of charging times.
The installation of such a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at a petrol station is an important development. Petrol stations are increasingly transforming from traditional fuel providers to multifunctional energy suppliers. Combining battery storage with electric charging facilities not only responds to the growth of electric transport, but also relieves the local energy grid and manages peak loads.
The AC work for this project were carried out by Priotec from Harmelen, a reliable local partner with expertise. This cooperation with local parties underlines ProfiNRG's strong coordination and project support.
With years of experience in PV installations, battery storage and integrated energy systems, ProfiNRG ideally suited to lead such complex projects. Their expertise guarantees reliable operation, optimal integration and future-proofing of the system. Thanks to this successful implementation, BP Middelweerd is now better prepared for tomorrow's energy demand.
