BESS Assets: Rockstars Of The Energy Transition

BESS assets today are different from renewables in 2007. They exist in a market where the price for many of their services are far more likely to go up than down. The only good macro bets in the energy transition are increasing volatility of electricity prices, increasingly dynamic shapes for such prices throughout the day, and a huge need for

The challenges for BESS optimisation firms

However, Irons says that even as asset owners get larger and more familiar with BESS, there will still be plenty of value for third-party firms to add. It takes around 2GW of operational capacity before the in-house model gets even remotely cost-competitive and even that is with some significant caveats, Irons says.
