Energy storage client case study – Géant Casino

Géant Casino is a chain of food supermarkets. La Ricamarie store in France has chosen GreenYellow for an energy storage project

Project context

Second-life battery system installed behind the meter of a Casino hypermarket. Integrated in an allin-one container and linked to a control gateway from an aggregator, these batteries provide frequency regulation services for France’s electricity transmission operator RTE, and participate in the capacity market. They also provide back-up power for certain critical loads at the hypermarket.
