Hicorenergy: Powering Up Californian Gas Stations with Reliable Energy Solutions

Power reliability is crucial for gas stations, where outages can halt operations, impact sales, and compromise security. In California, one gas station found the perfect solution with Hicorenergy’s advanced energy storage system. After a two-year process of applications and subsidy approvals, the station finally secured a 90kWh battery system, ensuring uninterrupted power supply for its operations.

The Beginning of a Game-Changing Project

The story began in the summer of 2024 when Hicorenergy’s product manager had a conversation with the station owner. The biggest challenge? Frequent power shortages, disrupting fuel pumps, security systems, and store operations. Understanding these challenges, Hicorenergy proposed a powerful and scalable battery storage system to solve the issue.

Hicorenergy’s High-Capacity Energy Storage System

The gas station now benefits from a robust energy solution, featuring:

  • Two 15kW Sol-Ark inverters, delivering a combined output of 30kW
  • 18 units of Hicorenergy I-BOX 48100R batteries, each with 5.12kWh capacity, totaling 90kWh
  • Reliable power supply for fuel pumps, lighting, security cameras, and the convenience store

Why Hicorenergy?

Hicorenergy’s I-BOX 48100R battery system stands out for its long cycle life (6000+ cycles at 90% DOD), high efficiency (>95%), and seamless compatibility with leading inverters. This ensures:

  •  Continuous power supply during grid failures
  •  Cost savings by optimizing energy usage and reducing peak electricity costs
  •  Sustainability by integrating solar power for a greener solution

Transforming Energy Reliability for Gas Stations

For fuel stations, energy security is non-negotiable. With Hicorenergy’s battery system, this Californian gas station now enjoys:

  •  Uninterrupted fuel pumping, ensuring customer satisfaction
  •  Enhanced security, with cameras and lighting functioning 24/7
  •  Operational convenience, keeping store appliances running smoothly

Future of Energy Storage in Gas Stations

Hicorenergy’s project is a blueprint for the future, proving that advanced lithium battery solutions can revolutionize energy reliability for fuel stations worldwide. As energy demands grow and power stability remains uncertain, investing in a robust storage system is no longer an option—it’s a necessity.

Looking for a dependable energy solution for your gas station? Contact Hicorenergy today and take the first step toward an uninterrupted power supply!
