Energy storage optimisation specialist Habitat Energy has signed an agreement with Octopus Energy US to optimise a 50MW/100MWh tolled battery energy storge system (BESS) in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) market.
IPP Ormat Technologies has commenced commercial operations for its 20MW/20MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) project, the Montague energy storage facility.
Optimiser Habitat Energy has secured a deal with UBS Asset Management to handle the energy market activity of four BESS projects totalling 730MW in ERCOT, Texas.
The opening up of independent system operator (ISO) services as a result of FERC 841 has led to a “huge difference” in storage dispatch strategy for merchant markets with concurrent bidding now the typical strategy.
