Volvo Penta Advances Battery Energy Storage

Volvo Penta is progressing its net-zero initiatives by providing its battery energy storage subsystem to BESS manufacturers venturing into charging infrastructure support, exemplified in a recent collaboration with TecnoGen, part of BGG (Bruno Generators Group).

Earlier in 2023, Volvo Penta declared its provision of subsystems for Battery Energy Storage needs, affirming its dedication to being a dependable partner for BESS manufacturers. Since then, the company has made notable strides in establishing its first customer relationships.

Robust charging is essential for the widespread adoption of electric vehicles and industrial applications. This aligns with Volvo Penta’s multi-tenet industrial net-zero strategy, which spans the adoption of alternative fuels, electrification of off-highway applications, battery energy storage subsystems and fuel cell technology development, says the company.

To grasp these net-zero opportunities, Volvo Penta will collaborate with TecnoGen in their BESS to support charging infrastructure for electric heavy-duty vehicles. "This collaboration signifies a critical milestone in our pursuit of sustainable solutions, diversifying our BESS competencies," said Ilenia Procicchiani, Industrial Sales Manager Volvo Penta. "Together, we aim to drive innovation, and accelerate the adoption of BESS-driven charging infrastructure, ultimately playing a pivotal role in achieving a net-zero future."
