Energy-Storage.news proudly presents our webinar with GridBeyond, ‘Extract more value from BESS assets in the NEM: from advanced analytics to the full stack.’

The Australian energy storage market is undergoing a fundamental transformation. As FCAS revenues collapse under competitive pressure and energy arbitrage becomes the dominant revenue stream, battery operators are discovering that traditional optimisation approaches are no longer enough to deliver sustainable returns.

Technical sophistication and data-driven decision-making are now the defining factors separating high-performing assets from underperforming ones.

With revenue increasingly concentrated in short-duration price spikes and extreme volatility events, storage operators face a new reality: being available at the right moment matters more than cycling frequently.

Success now depends on sophisticated forecasting, real-time optimisation that handles uncertainty, and a deep understanding of battery degradation economics.

In this on-demand webinar, GridBeyond’s Scott Berrie and Paul Conlon explore:

  • How the structural shift from FCAS to energy arbitrage is reshaping the Australian battery revenue landscape, and why revenue concentration in extreme price events demands new optimisation approaches
  • Why point forecasting and linear programming are leaving money on the table, and how stochastic optimisation and distribution forecasting can capture asymmetric upside opportunities
  • How real-time battery health analytics and degradation modelling enable smarter cycling decisions that reduce operational costs while maximising net revenues
  • When to cycle and when to preserve state of charge, how to balance short-term spreads against long-term asset health, and critical mistakes that can erode profitability
  • How virtual structures and evolving market frameworks are creating new opportunities for operators who can navigate complex nomination requirements and contractual constraints

Speakers:

Scott Berrie, director of origination, GridBeyond

Paul Conlon, director of modelling and forecasting, GridBeyond

In this webinar, Florian Didier and Salomé Perperot from Clean Horizon share the approach they use when supporting IPPs through optimiser selection and contract negotiation across Europe. The presentation will be followed by a live Q&A session in which attendees can put their own questions to the speakers. Who should attend: IPPs and developers, asset owners and investors, lenders and financial advisors, and anyone involved in the commercial structuring of battery storage projects.

The Future of Energy Storage Starts Here Three days in London where developers, IPPs, investors, utilities and the manufacturers building the technology come to close deals, not swap business cards. If you need to be in the room with the people deploying capital into European storage, this is that room.
