Why Watch This Webinar?

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are rapidly becoming a critical component of modern power systems. But what is it really like to operate one for the first time? Watch this exclusive session to hear directly from the teams behind one of the biggest BESS deployments in the Central American and Caribbean region.

In this on demand webinar, industry leaders from InterEnergy and TWAICE will present their real-world experience operating a BESS from the ground up. You’ll hear from Laura PerezAmigo (Operations Manager at InterEnergy), and Matthew Drazenovich (Technical Solution Engineer at TWAICE) about what it takes to transition from traditional energy operations to battery-based systems.

Participants will learn about the unique challenges encountered—from system integration with PV assets to performance optimization under dynamic grid conditions—and how decisions made early in the lifecycle can have long-term impacts. You’ll also gain insight into how data analytics software can become a powerful tool for optimizing BESS performance, improving reliability, reducing operating costs, and anticipating failures.

Whether you’re planning a BESS deployment or managing an existing one, this session offers valuable knowledge, best practices, and cautionary tales from experts who’ve been through the process.

Key Takeaways:

  • First-hand operational insights from the team behind the largest BESS in the region
  • Best practices for commissioning and running a BESS, including integration with PV systems
  • How BESS analytics software like TWAICE contributes to reliability, cost-efficiency, and system longevity
  • Emerging trends in energy storage, cost reductions, and regulatory drivers
  • Live Q&A to engage with expert panelists and address your questions directly

Don’t miss this opportunity to get behind the scenes of a high-impact BESS project and walk away with actionable insights.
