TESVOLT, a leading European provider of innovative energy storage solutions for businesses, has announced the launch of its new battery storage system, the TESVOLT Forton. The system will be showcased at the ees Europe trade fair in Munich from May 7-9, 2025.
This new system marks a major breakthrough in energy storage technology, using high–temperature cells based on LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) technology. These cells offer several advantages over traditional models, including lower cooling requirements and longer lifespan, while eliminating the need for liquid cooling. This results in reduced maintenance costs, as service work can be performed by installers without special certification for handling hazardous substances.
With a performance guarantee of 15 years and two full charge cycles per day, the TESVOLT Forton offers high durability and investment security, making it an ideal choice for businesses looking to enter the growing energy trading market. A grid connection point with at least 50 kW output is all that’s needed to use the system for profitable energy trading.
Fast Return on Investment
According to Simon Schandert, Co-Founder and CTO of TESVOLT AG, the new system offers a quick return on investment, typically within a few years when used for energy trading. “We call it an ‘economic miracle’ because it’s never been more cost-effective to operate a commercial storage system,” Schandert explained.
The TESVOLT Forton is scalable, with up to 16 units able to be interconnected, achieving a total storage capacity of up to 1.5 MW. This flexibility makes it suitable for a variety of commercial applications.
Enabling Energy Trading
In addition to the battery system, TESVOLT has also launched a new spin-off, TESVOLT Energy, which facilitates energy trading for businesses. In the past, small commercial storage systems had difficulty finding energy traders or participating in the electricity exchange. TESVOLT Energy addresses this by bundling smaller storage systems into a pool, allowing them to be traded collectively.
Using intelligent software, TESVOLT Energy optimizes battery storage performance to maximize profits while minimizing wear and tear on the system, ensuring a high return on investment with minimal operational strain.
Security and Safety
Security is a key priority for TESVOLT, and the TESVOLT Forton is designed with multiple safety features, including integrated smoke, heat, and gas sensors, an alarm system, and an aerosol extinguishing system. The company also offers a 15-year performance guarantee and ensures cybersecurity for its customers.
Daniel Hannemann, Co-Founder and CEO of TESVOLT, emphasized that the new system represents a safe and profitable investment for businesses. “With TESVOLT Energy, you no longer need to invest in photovoltaic installations. You only need a grid connection point and our new battery system to start benefiting from energy trading,” said Hannemann.
