Herschel ESS battery storage system, ideal solution for Heritage buildings

Avoid Costly Grid Upgrades with Intelligent Energy Storage

Battery storage for Churches and Heritage Buildings

Stop upgrading your electricity supply. Start managing it

Herschel Energy Storage (ESS) is more than just a battery product. Where others simply add storage, Herschel brings together efficient heating, intelligent control and storage into one complete energy management solution.

The smart route to net zero: Save up to £7,000 per year by avoiding expensive commercial half-hourly electricity charges and potentially £10,000’s of electricity upgrade costs.

Churches and heritage buildings often face unique challenges when looking to electrify heat

Limited electrical capacity and listed building constraints can all make it expensive to switch from fossil fuel-based heating.

Traditional thinking says the answer is a supply upgrade. Herschel offers a different, practical approach. By combining modular battery storage with controllable loads and InfraSense® intelligence, we help customers make better use of the power they already have.

The Herschel Energy Storage System (ESS) can help avoid costly and disruptive supply upgrades. When paired with intelligent control and electric heating, it creates a low impact route to decarbonisation that is well suited to sensitive buildings.

A real-world example. Discover how this church avoided a major grid upgrade with battery support.

Key Benefits for Churches and Heritage Buildings of ESS

Avoid expensive upgrades

Reduce or remove the need for costly supply upgrades and major associated infrastructure works

Keep within lower cost tariffs

Avoid the higher ongoing fixed charges associated with commercial half-hourly metering

Control peak demand

Store energy when it is cheapest and use it when demand is highest, ideal for intermittent use buildings

We do not just add storage. We help customers unlock electrification without unnecessary infrastructure cost and allow energy to be used more flexibly and efficiently

How Herschel ESS Works

ESS battery storage

The Herschel ESS stores energy for use when the building needs it most. Typically, this means charging during lower-cost periods and discharging when heating or other electrical demand peaks.

Intelligent control with InfraSense®

InfraSense® technology manages how power is used, alongside ESS. Instead of increasing demand on the grid, the system helps smooth and control it, using energy more flexibly and efficiently.

Heating integration

Where Herschel Infrared heating products are used alongside ESS, customers benefit from a joined-up approach. Heating becomes a controllable load within a wider managed system rather than a standalone source of electrical demand.

Herschel ESS has been designed as a modular and scalable energy storage solution, yet its real strength comes from how it works as part of a wider system with heating and advanced control
