With that, the company’s platform, which it developed jointly with the AI-start-up ExaWizards, now works to optimize profitability of BESS facilities by deciding when to trade in the wholesale and when in the balancing market. The system creates daily bidding, as well as charging and discharging, plans.
BESS can generate revenue through the wholesale, capacity, and balancing markets, similar to those seen in Great Britain (GB). Currently, the proportion of total revenue from each service mirrors that seen in GB.
Companies including Mitsubishi HC Capital Energy, Renewable Japan, and Sinanen have, so far, entered the market among others. Correspondingly, the demand for trading solutions able to optimize BESS power trading among the wholesale, balancing, and capacity markets is set to grow.
