Take control of your energy costs and capacity.
New Zealand's electricity system is changing. ASKA GRIDSTORE™ gives commercial and industrial organisations the tools to actively manage cost, capacity and resilience — not just respond to them.
Energy is becoming a competitive advantage. Not everyone will move at the same time.
in New Zealand
The energy system is changing faster than the infrastructure supporting it.
New Zealand's electricity system is entering a period of structural change. Demand is rising through electrification, renewable generation is increasing variability, and network infrastructure is under pressure. Energy is moving from a simple operating expense to a strategic infrastructure decision.

Energy from a passive expense
to a controlled asset
ASKA GRIDSTORE is an energy storage platform built for commercial and industrial sites. It works alongside your existing grid supply, on-site generation and operational loads — actively managing when and how energy is used.
Control peak-driven costs
Peak demand and network capacity charges can represent 20–50% of a C&I electricity bill. GRIDSTORE supplies power during high-demand periods, reducing demand-related charges and improving cost predictability.
Support capacity & growth
If network capacity is constrained or you're planning additional load, GRIDSTORE reduces upgrade requirements and enables staged growth — without the 12–36 month wait for a new connection.
Improve resilience
GRIDSTORE supports critical loads during outages and smooths demand variability, providing greater operational certainty and cost stability when you need it most.
Unlock existing assets
Already have solar? A backup generator? GRIDSTORE improves utilisation and reduces reliance on expensive peak grid supply — getting more from infrastructure you already own.
