Daimler AG's Mercedes-Benz said Thursday that its subsidiary
Mercedes-Benz Energy has signed a cooperation agreement with
Austrian engineering group Andritz AG to supply energy storage
systems for hydropower plants.
"The hybrid energy solution offered by Mercedes-Benz Energy and
Andritz combines a hydropower unit with a stationary energy
storage, based on automotive lithium-ion battery systems from
Mercedes-Benz," Mercedes-Benz said.
The stored energy can be quickly available and the system
increases the flexibility of the hydropower plants, it said.
