The energy market is undergoing rapid transformation, creating new opportunities for investors in the green transition. One of the most exciting and fastest-growing sectors is BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems). Battery storage offers diverse ways to increase returns in the energy market.
Why are battery storage systems attracting investors right now?
Electricity production and consumption fluctuate constantly, and the variable output of renewable energy in particular creates a need for energy storage. In northern climates, solar and wind power generation can vary significantly from day to day. BESS battery systems offer a solution to these challenges.
They also allow electricity to be stored when prices are at their lowest and sold when prices peak.
The demand for electricity reserve capacity is projected to grow significantly in the coming years, further increasing demand for battery storage. BESS battery systems give investors the opportunity to enter this market during its growth and development phase.
The versatile potential of battery storage
Integration with renewable energy production
Battery storage enables more efficient use and smoother delivery of electricity, complementing sources like solar or wind power. So-called hybrid plants combine, for example, a solar park with a battery storage solution.
Participation in reserve markets
Battery systems can provide fast backup power to the national grid, which is compensated financially. Participating in reserve markets requires, among other things, the necessary technical capacity as well as approved measurement and monitoring systems.
Taking advantage of electricity price fluctuations
A battery storage container or other energy storage solution can buy electricity when it’s cheap and sell it back to the grid at a higher price – making for a profitable business model.
