Azelio, a Swedish cleantech company, has received its first U.S. order for its energy storage, the TES.POD, from Handi Stop Market in Fresno, California.

Handi Stop will combine two TES.POD units with solar power to meet half of the energy demand at one of its locations. The Handi Stop Market consists of a gas station, a convenience store and a fast-food outlet.

The system including solar power, will provide 140 MWhe of clean power annually, representing half of the Handi Stop Market’s total energy demand and a starting point for resiliency purposes providing stable power supply during power outages.

In addition to delivering electricity, the units will provide data to the U.S. certification project that Azelio is carrying out in collaboration with MMR (mmrgrp.com). Units adapted to U.S. standards are expected to be integrated and installed at the Handi Stop Market in the first half of 2023.

Handi Stop Market is placing the order on commercial terms, reflecting the fact that the units also will provide data to the certification project.

The project will serve as showcase for many other potential applications in the Central Valley region in California, such as EV charging stations, walnut plantations, poultry, egg and dairy farms, wineries as well as local rural communities.
