Session Three: The economics of a battery energy storage system (BESS)

  • What are the major components of a BESS and the costs associated with each of these components?
  • Quantifying the ongoing costs throughout a BESS’s lifetime that need to be accounted for, e.g., operating expenses, fixed system maintenance, decommissioning, end-of-life services, etc.
  • What is the State of Charge (SOC)? What are the difficulties in calculating the SOC?
  • Group Exercise : how to calculate the levelised cost of energy (LCOE) of the different battery types and what this value actually means

Learning outcome: to get an understanding of the components and costs of a battery energy storage system (BESS)
 

Session Four: Best practice in battery asset management

  • What asset management tools are available for batteries and battery sites? What lessons can be learned from asset management for renewable energy?
  • How can you maximise the operational performance of a battery?
  • What are the best practices for structuring a site?
  • What is meant by battery ageing? What influences the ageing of batteries and how can these effects be minimised?
  • Group Exercise : explore best practices for optimising battery performance and lifetime

Learning outcome: to learn how to optimise battery performance
