HORIZON S.A., being always a pioneer in the field of energy, realized early the value of energy storage. In 2019, it installed the first energy storage system in Greece that is connected to the grid, aiming at the energy autonomy of a small industrial building in an remote area. In 2018, the company received approvals to participate in two research projects in the field of energy storage using the two most widely used ways of energy storage worldwide: lithium battery and hydrogen fuel cells. In addition, it owns an electric car and a car charger to serve its staff.<\/p>\n
