Farming often takes place in remote locations, far from the grid. Businesses are operating with an unreliable grid access, fluctuating tariffs and high fixed costs. In some areas, wildfires or other disasters can damage grid infrastructure and cause delays and energy supply interruptions. To avoid downtime, farms often use wood fuel or a diesel generator back-up, adding cost and hindering progress on sustainability goals.

Clean energy independence with TES.POD enables farmers to access a localised supply, while hedging electricity prices and reducing network charges. TES.POD can be co-owned by several farms, with clean electricity and heat distributed to multiple owners.

The world is electrifying fast, but there are still many areas where the population is spread over a large geographical area and centralised power generation is not economically or technically viable. As pressure increases on the grid, there is unreliable delivery of critical energy, with high electricity bills for end-users. Communities tend to rely on diesel as a back-up, increasing cost and creating emissions.

For communities to develop and grow – establishing new industrial and commercial projects that will aid prosperity – they need a resilient energy supply. TES.POD offers clean energy independence as a long-term investment with a short payback, to lower cost and provide reliable, clean electricity for decades.

Mining often takes place in remote or off-grid areas, where it’s a challenge to secure a stable grid connection. With limited water supply and harsh geographical conditions also part of the equation, as well as the fact that short-term projects may need to relocate, mining is an industry in need of a flexible and reliable energy supply. As mining businesses look to reduce their environmental impact, to obtain a social license for operation, and strive for decarbonisation – the time is now to embrace a viable renewable energy technology.

TES.POD is a scalable and modular solution, which can be easily relocated during its 30 year lifetime, and offers clean energy independence by supplying affordable heat and electricity with zero CO2 emissions.
