Quebec-based IPP Boralex and Six Nations of the Grand River Development Corporation (SNGRDC) have commissioned the 300MW/1,200MWh Hagersville Battery Energy Storage Park in Haldimand County, Ontario, CA.
The Battery Asset Management Summit Europe earlier this month brought together operators, optimisers, software and hardware suppliers and more to discuss the big topics in BESS risk management, operation, commercialisation and optimisation. Read on for a summary of the key talking points.
We caught up with developer and IPP Greenvolt Power’s head of storage Antonio Montoto Rojo about the recent MACSE auction in Italy, where it won a contract for a 75MW BESS.
There is a “healthy pipeline of projects in development” across Europe’s energy storage sector, but the technologies are as yet “significantly underutilised” below their potential.
The low prices and strict operational requirements in Italy’s recent MACSE auction for BESS have brought asset management and operational execution into the spotlight.
A year since the implementation of the initial steps in EU Batteries Regulation went into effect and the impacts are already being seen, writes Nicholas Bellini of TÜV SÜD.
We hear from the co-founder and CEO of optimiser Suena Energy Dr. Lennard Wilkening about the evolution of BESS asset management in Europe, including the impact of artificial intelligence (AI).
The low level of the MACSE tariffs in Italy took everyone by surprise and will require careful asset management, but their relative value and those of the capacity market (CM) should increase over time.
