Will a battery storage system help Czech companies achieve net zero?

The high penetration of renewable generation projects in the region could deliver a large amount of clean energy and really accelerate the journey to net zero, but at the moment Czech companies are not in a position to reap the full benefits of solar and other renewable energy sources. To do so, battery storage will be essential.

Why are Czech businesses investing in renewable projects without subsidies?

The subsidy increases to cover up to 75% of costs for community projects. But what we noticed at Wattstor is that Czech businesses are investing in renewable projects even in the absence of subsidies, because they have realised the strong business case for generating clean energy on site.

What is a photovoltaic power plant?

a modular system that you can expand at any time (with more panels or a battery) Since 2007, we have built photovoltaic power plants for ourselves and our customers in the Czech Republic and abroad (United Kingdom, Romania, Turkey, Hungary, Russia, Kazakhstan and Ukraine) with a combined capacity of 428 MWp.

What are the prospects of solar power production from photovoltaic power plants?

Solar power production from photovoltaic power plants (PVPP) has great prospects. The constantly decreasing costs of photovoltaic technology makes solar power fully competitive with electricity supplied from the grid. Solar power is one of the inexhaustible energy sources.

Is there a potential for solar installations in Europe?

There is a huge potential for solar installations, with ideal climate conditions and substantial funding coming from the EU. The situation is similar in other areas of Central and Eastern Europe, where Wattstor has already completed a number of successful renewable energy installations – such as Poland, Croatia and Slovakia.
