Energy Toolbase joins FRV to provide Acumen EMS controls for pioneering Energy Storage-as-a-Service model in Mexico

FRV had selected Energy Toolbase’s Acumen EMS™ to join a partnership for the first project based on an ‘Energy Storage-as-a Service’ model focused solely on the Mexican industry that will enable the optimization of energy consumption and savings for the end customer. This first system deployed through the model in Mexico City is a 480kW system using a BYD CHESS unit, controlled by Acumen EMS to optimize the site’s power factor, provide savings, and improve the quality of the industrial facilities’ electrical service. The system will not only save customers money and improve power quality but will also relieve the strain on the grid that their heavy consumption of electricity can cause, especially at peak times. This is FRV’s first major energy storage project in Mexico under the EnSaaS model and will be used as a replicable model for more projects across Mexico and promises to revolutionize the Mexican industrial electricity market.
