What is mobile energy storage and why is demand increasing?
Mobile energy storage refers to a transportable battery system capable of supplying power (AC) and/or storing energy from a source such as grid power, solar energy, or a generator. Demand is increasing due to grid congestion, stricter emission regulations, and the ongoing electrification of equipment and transport.
Noise regulations also play a role: ChargeBlock systems operate virtually silently, which is particularly relevant in city centers and for night shifts. In addition, energy storage enables peak shaving, allowing the operation of heavy consumers even with a smaller grid connection or limited temporary construction power.

Battery container on the construction site
On construction sites with limited grid connections or strict emission limits, diesel generators are often inadequate or no longer permitted. A mobile battery container provides the same peak capacity for cranes, site offices, lighting, and electric tools, but operates silently, with zero emissions, and without the need for on-site fuel logistics.
Temporary on-site power supply
For a temporary project, applying for a permanent grid connection upgrade for just a few months of work is inefficient. The battery container is installed, connected to the available construction power or a generator, and immediately provides sufficient power for the simultaneous use of multiple devices. Once the project is completed, the container is relocated to the next site.

Charging hub
Battery containers
Charging hub for electric trucks
In addition to construction sites, mobile energy storage is also deployed as a temporary charging hub for electric transport. When a distribution site lacks sufficient grid capacity for multiple fast chargers simultaneously, a ChargeBlock battery container is charged at a location with available grid capacity and subsequently placed at the charging plaza.
During peak hours, the battery delivers additional power to the fast chargers, enabling trucks to charge faster without waiting for time-consuming grid expansion.

Peak shaving: reducing peak load and limiting grid costs
On construction sites, mobile storage supports zero-emission operations by powering cranes, site cabins, lighting, and electric tools, even when the grid connection capacity is limited. At events, a battery system handles the sudden peak consumption of lighting, audio, and catering, without smoke, odor, or vibration.
For temporary charging hubs, the deployment of ChargeBlock enables fast charging when the grid capacity is not (yet) sufficient; the battery can charge gradually and subsequently deliver high power to the chargers. This establishes a flexible energy buffer that adapts to the schedule, the season, and the requirements of the location.

Power, capacity and charging speed: how ChargeBlock sizes systems
The correct configuration is determined by three core values: the power (kW) for simultaneous peaks, the energy capacity (kWh) for the required duration of use, and the chosen charging and discharging strategy. For a short, high peak, the available power is the decisive factor, whereas a long working day without recharging requires high capacity.
Additionally, consider the available charging point: a small connection increases charging times, which requires a larger buffer or a smarter charging strategy. ChargeBlock assists in collecting consumption profiles to select the appropriate battery and inverter based on this data.

On-site deployment: transport, connection, and plug-and-play
Our battery containers are used for peak shaving, zero feed-in, and behind-the-meter optimization. By utilizing stored energy strategically, you prevent exceeding contracted capacity limits and reduce reliance on the grid. This creates capacity for expansion without requiring immediate grid reinforcement.

Frequently asked questions about mobile energy storage
Here you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions.
Is mobile energy storage also suitable for a one-off event?
Yes. For a one-time event, renting is usually the most logical choice: the container is installed and connected for the duration of the event, and collected afterwards.
Is it also possible to rent a battery container instead of purchasing one?
Yes, in addition to purchase, ChargeBlock offers rental of battery containers, specifically aimed at temporary projects such as construction sites, events, and pilots. View the rental options for the possibilities and conditions.
Is battery storage financially viable for our organization?
This largely depends on the duration of use and the operational profile. For a short-term or one-off project, renting is often more cost-effective than purchasing, as you do not tie up capital in an asset that is only used for a few months. For structural or recurring use, such as across multiple locations per year, purchasing can offer a faster return on investment. ChargeBlock can calculate these scenarios for you based on your expected usage.
Can the battery container be integrated with our existing EMS or aggregator?
Yes. ChargeBlock systems are compatible with the most commonly used EMS platforms and with aggregators participating in flexibility markets. Via standard communication protocols, the battery container can be controlled within an existing energy management system, aligning charging and discharging times with market prices, grid conditions, or the local consumption profile.
How does a battery container mitigate grid congestion and peak demand?
Our battery containers are deployed for peak shaving, zero feed-in, and behind-the-meter optimization. Intelligent use of stored energy avoids exceeding contracted capacity and limits grid dependence. This creates room for expansion without requiring immediate grid reinforcement.
