MISSION
Our mission is to unlock the decarbonization potential of energy storage and accelerate the green energy transition.
-
Method
Leveraging a first-of-its-kind carbon offset and our novel optimization platform, energy storage assets can operate seamlessly across energy, ancillary, and carbon markets.
-
MEMBERSHIP
We lead the Energy Storage Solutions Consortium (ESSC): an industry group with over 84 member companies in pursuit of the first Verra carbon methodology for energy storage
THE PROBLEM
-
We Need More Batteries
To reach ‘Net Zero,’ NREL projects we will need 200-400 gigawatts of grid-scale batteries, which will require over one trillion dollars of investment.
-
The ‘Missing Money’
Batteries struggle to pencil across most markets due to cannibalization of power markets, saturation of ancillary service markets, and rising costs of equipment and labor.
-
Rising Carbon Emissions
Without the proper incentives and data visibility, utility-scale batteries may be inadvertently increasing carbon emissions.
The solution
-
Data Analytics
We provide unparalleled carbon insights to aid developers in siting and operations as well as assist corporations and utilities in making more informed procurement decisions.
-
carbon revenue
We offer a new class of verified carbon offsets that can boost battery project revenues by as much as 20-30%, accelerate energy decarbonization, and improve grid reliability. A win-win for purchasers and the planet!
-
optimization
We’re building the first (and only) optimization platform that can operate a battery asset to maximize revenues across power markets and carbon markets.
“It’s an intriguing idea and the only real solution I’ve seen proposed to a problem that no one else is even talking about.”
