New Energy Storage Installation by Royal Van der Leun x Alfen
We’re happy to share our latest collaboration with Alfen! Together, we built this cutting-edge energy storage system from beginning to end.
Solid Start
During the planning phase, we tackled challenges around lead time, labor, durability, and quality, creating an efficient solution.
Our Metal Works division:
- Engineered and calculated the structural strength of the skids.
- Welded and assembled them at our Sliedrecht workshop.
After, the skids are galvanized to enhance their durability and prevent rust, ensuring they can support 56 tons.
Our EMS installation team:
- Installed cables, cabinets, and DC-bus cabinets on the skids
- Connects the installation to the HV grid
Sustainable Solution
Each skid will house Alfen batteries with a total capacity of 40 MWh—enough to power your home and those of 12 neighbors for a year, using renewable wind energy! This system balances the high-voltage grid by storing surplus energy and providing backup when needed.
Collaboration for a Greener Future
With durable skids, expert installation, and Alfen’s top-tier batteries, we’re proud to contribute to a more sustainable future. Thanks to Alfen for their trust—here’s to many more innovative projects together!
