Schneider Electric has announced the UK launch of Schneider Boost Pro, its cutting-edge local battery energy storage solution.

Driven by the continued electrification and the growing transition from CO₂-intensive oil and gas-based production to more sustainable manufacturing approaches, renewables now produce 44% of the UK’s electricity according to the National Energy Systems Operator (NESO). Increasing this figure is proving challenging, however, due to renewable variability, intermittency and the need for grid modernisation to deliver a flexible and interactive system.

Schneider Boost Pro is a solution that supports the energy transition by delivering energy storage capabilities that enhance flexibility, stability, and efficiency in power supply across industrial and commercial buildings.

The Schneider Boost Pro battery storage system is also suitable for deployment in depot environments to support the charging of heavy-duty vehicles such as buses and trucks. Additionally, it can be integrated into transit infrastructure – such as along highways – where reliable and high-capacity charging solutions are essential.

Scalable from 200 kWh to 2 MWh, by combining up to 10 units, Schneider Boost Pro is part of Schneider Electric’s end-to-end solution to optimise energy operations as demand grows. This comprehensive solution includes power distribution, EV chargers, edge control, software and services.
