Distributed Energy

As businesses in the UK and the rest of the world seek to minimise their carbon emissions, we’ve seen a range of new technologies enter the market place. In many cases, these move away from centralised energy generation to more localised solutions, including distributed energy solutions such as Combined Heat and Power (CHP).

Distributed energy systems can help you use less energy, increase operational resilience and access new revenue streams. Such systems rely on complex control, requiring the energy generation system to be managed while allowing it to synchronise with the electricity grid when required. We have a rich history in distributed energy.

We entered the sector in the 1980s and have built control panels for hundreds of distributed energy systems. Our expertise and ability to manufacture the complex control panels required is recognised across the sector, allowing us to work with a range of energy providers and OEMs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Bensons have experience with combined heat and power systems?
Yes. Bensons has worked within the distributed energy sector since the 1980s and has manufactured control panels for hundreds of distributed energy systems, including Combined Heat and Power applications. This experience enables the team to support energy providers and equipment manufacturers with complex control and power-management requirements.
What role do control panels play in distributed energy systems?
Control panels manage and coordinate the equipment used within distributed energy systems. This can include controlling energy-generation equipment, monitoring system performance and allowing the system to synchronise safely with the electricity grid. The precise control requirements depend on the generation technology, site infrastructure and intended operating strategy.
