Energy Storage
We have extensive experience in energy storage options covering grid, behind the meter, and community batteries
How we model Energy Storage
The following are the key considerations in energy storage analysis
Arbitrage
Low price charge, high price discharge
5-minute Settlement
Arbitrage under 5-minute settlement
Ancillary Services
Frequency Control, Network Support, Black Start
Demand Reduction
Reduce peak network demand by scheduled dispatch
Capacity Degradation
Modelling degradation by energy throughput and/or time
C-rating
Charge/discharge rate
Renewable Energy Charging
Compare grid vs on-site charging
Connection Point Constraints
Connection point constraints limiting exports
Round Trip Efficiency
Energy losses in storage technology
Past Engagements
Community Battery
Apogee Energy was engaged to develop the initial business model and explore the economics for Ausgrid’s community battery program.
5- minute settlement
Advised the Australian Energy Markets Commission on the economics of energy storage in the change from half-hourly to 5-minute settlement.
