Li-Ion batteries

Li-Ion batteries (lithium-ion batteries) are a popular type of rechargeable battery widely used in various electronic devices, such as smartphones, laptops, as well as in electric vehicles and stationary energy storage systems. They are known for their high energy density, low weight, and long lifespan.

The main advantages of Li-Ion batteries include:

High Energy Density: Allows a large amount of energy to be stored in a relatively small and lightweight package, making them ideal for portable electronic devices.
Long Lifespan: They have a long lifespan due to a high number of charge and discharge cycles.
Low Self-Discharge Rate: Li-Ion batteries discharge more slowly compared to other types of rechargeable batteries, increasing their efficiency during long-term storage.
Low Maintenance: Unlike some other types of batteries, Li-Ion batteries do not require regular maintenance to ensure their performance.

Although Li-Ion batteries offer many advantages, it is important to keep in mind several safety aspects, such as the risk of overheating and fire if misused or damaged. Therefore, it is crucial to use certified chargers and battery protection devices.

LiFePO4 batteries

LiFePO4 batteries (lithium iron phosphate batteries) are a type of lithium-ion battery known for their high energy density and long lifespan. While they have a lower energy density compared to some other types of lithium-ion batteries, they are much more stable and reliable, providing longer life and consistent high performance.

The main advantages of LiFePO4 batteries include:

Stability and safety: They are much more stable and less prone to overheating or catching fire, making them suitable for indoor use.
Long lifespan: Due to their resistance to cyclical stress, they offer a longer lifespan compared to other battery technologies.
High performance: Despite a lower energy density, they still provide sufficient power for a wide range of applications, including stationary energy storage.

Thanks to these properties, LiFePO4 batteries are popular for use in indoor battery storage solutions. At FUERGY, we use certified LiFePO4 batteries from Pylontech, which meet the strictest fire safety standards.

Load Shifting

Load shifting refers to the adjustment of energy consumption so that it occurs during off-peak periods rather than during peak demand times. A battery storage system reduces energy costs during periods of high spot prices and supports better utilization of renewable energy sources. Cooperation with your electricity supplier is not required.

Local distribution system (LDS)

A Local Distribution System (LDS) is a distribution system as defined by Act No. 251/2012 Coll. on Energy, to which no more than 100,000 delivery points are connected. It serves for the local distribution of electricity within defined areas such as city districts, industrial parks, or villages.

The LDS operator is responsible for the safe and reliable operation, maintenance, and contractual connection of delivery points and must comply with legal requirements for conducting business in the energy sector.

Low-carbon economy

A low-carbon economy is an economy that relies on energy sources with low emission of greenhouse gasses. The main goal of a low-carbon economy is to protect the environment and prevent long-term climate changes that could negatively impact human society and natural ecosystems. This model promotes the use of renewable energy sources, energy efficiency, and innovative technologies that reduce the carbon footprint.
