Our new AKUCAST episode is out!

Energy is no longer the stable, predictable sector it once was. Prices and availability are increasingly shaped by geopolitics, supply chain disruptions, and the rapid growth of renewables. In this shifting landscape, energy storage is becoming a key player.

In this episode, Michal Petřek from Raylyst Solar, one of Europe’s leading distributors of photovoltaic and battery systems, shares his insights.

Guide to Battery Deployment in the Czech Republic (2025)

We have updated our guide for battery deployment in the Czech Republic, providing you with the latest information on the conditions for the implementation and operation of battery energy storage systems in the country.

This guide is available exclusively to our members. If you are interested, please feel free to contact us at info@akubat-asociace.cz.

Guide to Permitting Battery Energy Storage Systems

We are pleased to introduce a new Guide to Permitting Battery Energy Storage Systems, prepared by our expert in permitting processes, Jiří Bím.

Our members have had access to this guide since the beginning of November. If you are interested, please contact Vendula Korbelová at info@akubat-asociace.cz.

Guide to Safe Installation, Service, and Recycling of Battery Systems

Czech Energy Storage Association AKU-BAT CZ, in cooperation with the Solar Association, has published a guide summarizing the principles of safe installation, operation, and recycling of battery systems.

The brochure provides a basic safety framework for installation companies, households, and other stakeholders, helping to minimize risks and support the sustainable development of energy storage.

To request the guide, please contact Vendula Korbelová at info@akubat-asociace.cz.

List of Battery Producers and Suppliers

In cooperation with the Solar Association, we have updated the list of recommended battery manufacturers and suppliers in the Czech Republic, from among our members.

We associate subjects from the area
of energy across the Czech Republic

We are an association bringing together the most important entities active in the field of energy storage. We support the cooperation of our members in the entire spectrum of services, from the use of storage in industry, energy or as an element of flexibility, through the development of e-mobility to the development of hydrogen technologies and more.

The diversity of the ever-growing member base of the association gives us unique know-how across the field of accumulation.

battery

The members of the association are large energy companies, international and domestic manufacturers and suppliers of batteries, the most important players in the field of renewable energy sources, renowned banking houses, universities, research institutions, associations, industrial enterprises, heating plants, investors in hydrogen technologies, telecommunications companies and law firms.

We actively participate in creating of new laws and setting the conditions of new subsidy titles. We have the most up-to-date information about ongoing and upcoming legislative changes, not only in the Czech Republic but also in the EU, which we share with our membership.

We are a founding member of the Modern Energy Association (Svaz moderní energetiky), and we also work closely with the Solar Association and other industry associations.

AKUCAST – Our podcast

Secure Energy Supply and the Supply Chain in the Current Geopolitical Situation

The energy sector is no longer as stable and predictable as it used to be. Prices and availability of energy are increasingly influenced by geopolitical events, logistical challenges, and the growing share of renewable energy sources. In this evolving environment, energy storage is becoming ever more important.

The guest of this episode is Michal Petřek from Raylyst Solar, a company that ranks among the leading distributors of photovoltaic and battery systems in Europe.

Wind Energy in the Czech Republic and the Role of Battery Storage

In this episode of AKUCAST, we focus on key questions related to the development of wind energy in the Czech Republic. What is its current state? Why do projects often struggle to be implemented? And what role do battery storage systems play in this context? The main topic is the integration of wind power, energy storage, and flexibility—areas that will be crucial for the future direction of the Czech energy sector.

The episode is once again hosted by Jan Fousek (AKU-BAT), who welcomes guests Martin Sedlák (Association for Modern Energy) and Ivo Apfel (TESLA Energy Storage). The discussion also includes practical examples, such as the first combination of a wind power plant and battery storage in the Czech Republic, as well as experiences with grid connection.

BESS as a Stable Infrastructure Element

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are becoming a key component of modern energy infrastructure. With the growing share of renewable energy sources, power systems need technologies that can provide flexibility, fast response, and grid stability. BESS can store excess electricity and release it when needed, helping to balance supply and demand and support the reliable operation of the power system.

In this episode of AKUCAST, we explore how battery systems are designed and operated in practice — including topics such as system sizing, degradation, efficiency, safety, and integration into the grid.

Speakers:
Jan Fousek (AKU-BAT CZ) – moderator
Vítězslav Rosík (Sungrow)
Tomáš Kubina (Delta Energo / Technical Advisor to AKU-BAT CZ)
