Richardson Electronics, Ltd., a global provider of engineered solutions for renewable energy and other power management applications, announced that, in collaboration with its technology partners, it will deliver 18 customized battery energy storage systems (BESS) for deployment across seven remote communities in Alaska. The multi-million-dollar program represents another significant deployment for Richardson’s growing energy storage business and demonstrates the Company’s ability to combine its engineering capabilities with complementary technologies to address complex power management applications.
As remote communities in Alaska work to strengthen energy resilience and improve the reliability of their power infrastructure, renewable energy and energy storage technologies are becoming increasingly important. Working in collaboration with its technology partners, Richardson Electronics has developed customized energy storage solutions designed to operate reliably in Alaska’s challenging climate and extreme temperatures. The systems will provide a combined energy storage capacity of 7 MWh, with project completion expected by the end of 2027. Each system is being engineered to meet the unique energy requirements of its respective community, with a focus on performance, reliability, and operation in demanding environmental conditions.
“This project demonstrates Richardson Electronics’ ability to leverage our engineering expertise and technology partnerships to deliver innovative energy storage solutions for challenging applications,” said Greg Peloquin, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Power & Microwave Technologies and Green Energy Solutions groups. “The deployment also represents another important step in the continued growth of our battery energy storage business. By combining our engineered solutions capabilities with complementary technologies, we are well positioned to pursue opportunities where reliability, customization, and technical expertise are critical.”
The project further demonstrates Richardson Electronics’ expanding capabilities in the energy storage market and its ability to deliver customized solutions for demanding applications. By combining its engineering, manufacturing, and systems integration expertise with complementary technologies from its partners, Richardson is positioned to address a broad range of energy storage and power management requirements while supporting more reliable and resilient power infrastructure from Illinois to Alaska.
