The €40,000 per MW per Year Gap: What Drives Financial Performance in Industrial Battery Systems?
Same battery.
Same capacity.
Up to €40,000 per MW per year difference.
This gap is entirely driven by how the battery is operated.
What Determines Battery Performance
1. Multi-market access: Smartly combining imbalance, reserve markets FCR and aFRR, and the intraday market through dynamic optimisation instead of single-market focus.
2. Peak shaving 2.0: Actively monitoring and reducing 15-minute peaks to structurally lower grid fees, while trading in parallel.
3. Local optimisation: Maximising the use of your own renewable energy at the right moments.
4. Your energy contract: If the contract is not adapted to flexibility, optimisation efforts lose impact.
5. VPP advantage: The strategic power of a large-scale Virtual Power Plant.
