Trusted by industrial companies in Belgium
Lower grid fees at €0 investment
With thin margins and capital tied up in equipment, energy infrastructure rarely gets prioritized at food and beverage companies. Production processes like pasteurization, sterilization, and CIP cycles create sharp peaks anyway, and those peaks cost you every month. With Bnewable, you don't invest, operate, or change your process at all. We finance and install the battery storage system, carry all the operational risk, and lower your grid fees, at no cost to you.
Protected from upcoming regulations
Belgian industry pays more for electricity than its competitors in neighboring countries, and transmission tariffs for industrial companies more than doubled in 2025. The federal energy norm aims to close part of that gap with lower transmission tariffs and temporary price support for energy-intensive sectors. In return, companies must reinvest part of that support in assets like storage or demand flexibility. A Bnewable battery gives your site that flexibility, and prepares it for whatever the next tariff reform brings.
One point of contact that handles everything for you
A battery storage project typically means coordinating many different parties, on top of a production schedule you can't pause. Managing that with your own team often isn't realistic. Bnewable takes care of all of it: planning, permitting, installation, operation, maintenance, and market optimization, as one point of contact built around your schedule.
A battery storage system only saves you money if someone is actively managing it: deciding when to charge, when to discharge, and when to hold. That someone is us. Instead of owning a battery, you simply get the results of having one.
Lower your capacity tariff with a battery that covers your demand peaks instead of the grid, without any change to your operations.
Store your solar surplus instead of feeding it back at a lower rate or losing it, so you can use your green energy in the evening too.
Bnewable's battery takes over when your site needs more power than your grid connection can handle. You get the extra capacity of a grid upgrade, without the years of waiting or the costs that come with it.
Bnewable's energy management system, Voltana trades your battery's flexibility on the energy markets, adding a revenue stream on top of your savings, automatically.

Battery-as-a-Service
Your project with Bnewable follows the Battery-as-a-Service model: you pay a fee only when the battery is actively lowering your electricity costs, and you keep the larger share of those savings. The rest of the time, Bnewable trades on the energy market using your battery, and you get a cut of that too. Either way, you reduce your energy costs and earn extra revenue, with no investment, and no extra staff required.

We size the battery to your consumption, peak loads, solar generation, and grid connection, then calculate what you'd save before you commit to anything.

Bnewable covers the full cost of the system. You provide the space and the grid connection; your capital stays in your core business.

Energy storage comes with complex permitting. We handle planning, permits, and installation, while your operations continue as usual.

We keep the battery running at peak efficiency, cutting demand peaks, maximizing your solar use, or earning market revenue. Maintenance is on us too.
Not automatically; that depends on the size of your battery storage system. When the battery is full, or the surplus is larger than what it can take, the remainder flows to the grid as it does today. Bnewable sizes the battery storage system against your measured surplus, so the share you capture is as high as it can usefully be.
Yes, a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) fixes your price for a set volume of renewable power. That volume rarely lines up hour by hour with your actual consumption, and that mismatch is what a battery storage system addresses. Bnewable uses the battery storage system to align the PPA volume with your load profile, and it continues to add value independently through peak shaving and market trading.
Bnewable owns the battery storage system and carries the operating risk. Failure, underperformance, maintenance, and replacement are our responsibility to fix and pay for. You provide the space and the grid connection, and your exposure to the asset stops there. This differs from purchasing a battery storage system outright, where downtime and repair costs would sit with you instead.
