Sparkion has developed a suite of behind-the-meter hardware and software solutions for on-site energy storage that enable commercial and industrial customers to meet EV charging needs, optimise value streams, and substantially reduce demand charges. This includes SparkCore and SparkSwitch.
The company was founded in Herzliya, Israel’s technology and innovation hub and is owned by Vontier Corporation, a global provider of critical technologies and solutions to the mobility ecosystem.
SparkCore is a hardware-agnostic, AI-driven energy management system which facilitates seamless and continuous communication with on-site energy assets to improve demand response participation, offer dynamic pricing and optimise overall site energy utilization. SparkSwitch is a proprietary switching technology which maximises the capacity of each battery module. SparkSwitch can reconfigure the internal battery structure while the unit is operating, bypassing ineffective modules that undermine and hinder the storage unit’s overall performance.
Sparkion will pursue customer acquisitions within North American commercial and industrial markets, targeting companies transitioning to electrified transportation including those who would benefit from an additional revenue stream through on-site EV charging. This includes fueling stations, retailers, fleet managers, automotive dealerships and more. Initial commercial installations in the US will begin in Q1 2023.
“There are still tremendous barriers to scaling clean energy and, in particular, EV charging infrastructure in the US, leading to unpredictable volatility in energy usage; and that’s exactly what Sparkion hopes to address” said Sparkion’s US-based Director of Business Development, Cole Rosson. “By offering both hardware and software in a single platform, we have a unique advantage in the energy storage space that we believe will bring tremendous value to North American customers looking to maximise on-site energy use, avoid demand charges and establish revenue streams through reliable EV charging.”
Behind the meter energy storage systems like the Sparkion offerings can serve as a reliable, cost-effective tool for seamlessly managing on-site charging and renewable energy integration. As it establishes North American operations, Sparkion’s portfolio hardware and software offerings for intelligent energy management will be a valuable solution to commercial and industrial customers looking to elevate their on-site energy use.
