Pilot Programme - Cheesecake Energy

CEL Energy Storage Pilot Programme

Investing in new technology is key to modernising our electrical grid, growing our use of renewables and helping the UK to achieve Net Zero.

To better learn how energy storage can be a part of this solution, we’re inviting eligible customers to purchase and install CEL’s innovative eTanker storage system at their business.

As a pilot customer, you’ll have the opportunity to trial our energy storage solution before it becomes available to the wider public.

Why Get Involved?

Be first in line to trial the world’s greenest battery at your business.

Purpose

This pilot programme is a critical part of CEL’s research and development pipeline. Your participation will allow us to hit critical mass faster, meaning customers can access our systems and start reaching their decarbonisation goals faster.

Our Technology

Cheesecake Energy’s eTanker energy storage system is a stationary, medium to long-duration energy storage solution which delivers cheap, reliable, efficient energy storage in a modular, containerised package.

The technology stores energy in the form of heat and pressurised air, re-tasking ex-service truck engines to become zero-emission electrical power-conversion machines. The resulting system does not use diesel or any fuel. It is safe, straightforward to operate, has a lifetime of up to 25 years and can deliver turnaround efficiencies of around 70%.

We’ve already been successful testing our prototype system in a lab environment and will soon integrate the prototype system into a live customer site for the charging of an electric vehicle fleet. Our pilot programme will allow us to test and demonstrate the reliability of our technology with a variety of customers with unique storage needs and challenges, establishing crucial field experience to lay the groundwork for our commercial expansion.
