The advancement of energy storage systems, known as BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems), is the topic of a new episode of Papo Solar, which brings together experts from Canadian Solar to discuss applications, challenges, and viability in the Brazilian market.
Presented by Gustavo Tegon and Henrique HeinThe program features Gabriel Cavalcante, a sales engineer with experience in storage projects, and Rodrigo Soncini Melão, a Key Account Manager with experience in solutions for the commercial and industrial (C&I) segment, both from Canadian Solar.
During the episode, the guests discuss the growth in energy demand in the country, coupled with increased costs during peak hours and unpredictable pricing, factors that have driven interest in energy storage solutions.
According to experts, the absence of adequate energy management strategies can generate high costs for companies, especially in cases of poorly sized contracted demand, consumption peaks, and low operational predictability.
On the other hand, the correct application of BESS systems allows for optimizing energy use, reducing expenses, increasing energy security, and mitigating the impacts of potential supply interruptions.
The discussion also highlights that the economic viability of projects depends on detailed technical and financial analysis, considering the client's consumption profile and objectives.
The episode will air on Tuesday, April 7, 2026, at 18 PM, and is aimed at integrators, engineers, managers, and professionals in the electrical sector interested in solutions for energy efficiency and management.
