Initiating a battery storage project involves ensuring proximity to the grid’s transmission level, with a screening process initiated with grid operators to assess available capacity. Site suitability for both local residents and the municipality is paramount. Upon municipality approval and the prospect of a viable grid connection, the project can seamlessly progress to the next phase.
-
During development, our team works to shape the project’s design, conduct comprehensive feasibility studies, and proactively engage stakeholders. In addition to this, the application for grid connection is submitted, and initiation of the permitting process. This phase serves as the basis upon which our projects are built, ensuring that all regulatory and community considerations are addressed and heard.
-
When the project has secured the necessary permits and grid connection, it reaches ready-to-build status and enters the maturation phase. At this stage, we finalise the selection of battery storage technology and sizing of the plant in close collaboration with grid experts and traders.
-
We carry out construction in close collaboration with battery suppliers and contractors, carefully coordinating all elements and managing the interfaces to ensure seamless integration.
Projects are integrated into the power grid, supporting the grid to enable more renewables power and that way Storage plays a crucial role in achieving additional renewable generation in constraint grids with minimal grid buildout.
-
With the completion of the construction phase, projects enter the operation phase. The projects are operated through a central control system that optimizes storage and power flows helping stabilize and balance the grid.
This final stage is where the full value of the project is realised through active management, trading strategies, and ongoing optimization. We are investing in internal optimization tools designed to enhance the operational performance of our assets. These systems allow us to make better, faster decisions around dispatch, maintenance, and trading, with a purpose of maximizing value throughout the asset lifecycle.
