Helios - Advanced Energy Systems

Helios will deliver a substantially improved performance over current solutions.

The world faces an energy crisis with the transition away from fossil fuels and embracing intermittent renewable energy sources. Energy must be stored when renewable sources are intermittent and unpredictable.

Only energy storage can provide a consistent, safe and secure supply of zero carbon energy. Energy Storage will play a key role in keeping the lights on, reducing the reliance on conventional power stations, and accelerate the roll out of renewable energy systems.

All current forms of energy storage and particularly batteries are very expensive. Helios CHPES offers energy storage at lower costs, which will assist with decoupling the immediate energy generation from energy utilisation. As a consequence, improved efficiency of current energy production resources, stability of power networks and autonomy of local energy producers will offer large economic rewards.

Only energy storage can provide a consistent, safe and secure supply of zero carbon energy
