About this event
As the net zero energy transition accelerates and energy storage becomes a critical component of modern power grids across the United States, battery owners must stay ahead of evolving market dynamics to ensure consistent revenue streams.
This webinar will provide an in-depth analysis of how the declining profitability of ancillary services in ERCOT and CAISO has prompted a shift towards greater participation in energy markets. We will explore the risks and rewards associated with engaging in the day-ahead and real-time energy markets, offering insights into how battery storage operators can navigate these changes effectively.
GridBeyond’s experts will provide valuable insights into battery performance trends observed in Q1 2025 compared to previous years. They will highlight the key factors influencing market behaviour and battery asset performance and demonstrate how advanced analytics and sophisticated trading methodologies can enhance risk/reward profiles for utility-scale battery storage systems.
They will also explore the integration of bid optimization with resource Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), a critical approach to maximizing profitability while ensuring the longevity and reliability of battery assets. Attendees will gain practical knowledge on how to align their trading strategies with technological advancements and market shifts, positioning themselves for success in an increasingly competitive landscape.
