Optimising BESS configurations for grid-constrained environments

Battery energy storage projects face a tough balancing act: navigating complex grid regulations (fees and curtailment) while maximising revenue potential. This session explores how to select the optimal BESS configuration by balancing capacity, duration and grid connections within varying grid constraints across Europe.

We will show how Montel Analytics’ new BESS  products help to set up a viable business case. Whether you’re designing for flexibility, trading or capacity markets, learn how to align technical decisions with policy realities and commercial opportunities.

Themes covered in the webinar:

• How grid constraints and curtailment risk vary across European regions

• The impact of system duration and capacity on business models

• Trading vs. flexibility vs. grid configurations

• Introduction to Montel’s new BESS Products

• Index: a regional benchmarking tool

• Revenue calculator bespoke projects including all limitations

• Case examples showing configuration trade-offs under real-world grid conditions

• How policy changes are shaping future BESS development zones

What will you learn in the webinar:

• How to assess project viability in grid-constrained zones using Montel data

• Which technical setups perform best under different market and grid conditions

• How to use the BESS Index to benchmark configuration decisions by location

• Strategies to balance revenue stacking with constraints
