The opportunities raised by BESS batteries for the operation of the electrical system
January 5, 2022 “The latest IPCC report indicates an increase in the average temperature of the planet that can vary between 1.5°C and 4°C by the year 2100, compared to 2015. In the national territory, this will translate into a sustained contraction of annual rainfall and a increase in consecutive dry days, with an intensity higher than the average for the American continent. In…
