Live from Energy Deep Dive Germany

Register for What will my BESS earn? Long-term revenue scenarios for Germany

Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are moving from opportunity to necessity in the German power market. But one key question remains: what will they actually earn over time? 

In this live session from Energy Deep Dive Germany, Juri Schwartz, Analyst at Montel, breaks down how to build robust long-term revenue expectations for BESS across Germany’s evolving market landscape.  

You will gain a clear, structured view of how different revenue streams, across wholesale, balancing and ancillary markets, combine, interact and change under different market conditions. 

 

What you will learn 

  • The key revenue streams for BESS in Germany, including wholesale arbitrage, balancing and ancillary services  

  • How price volatility, spreads and system dynamics shape battery revenues  

  • How to build and interpret long-term revenue scenarios  

  • The impact of market design, regulation and renewable buildout on future earnings  

  • How to assess risk, uncertainty and downside scenarios for BESS investments  

 

Why this matters 

Battery storage revenues are highly sensitive to market evolution. Small changes in volatility, renewables penetration or balancing market design can significantly impact returns. 

This session helps you: 

  • Move from simple assumptions to data-driven revenue modelling  

  • Understand how different market conditions affect earnings potential  

  • Build confidence in investment cases and internal forecasts  

It is especially relevant for portfolio managers, analysts and investors evaluating storage assets or integrating BESS into broader portfolios.  

 

How this connects to Montel tools? 

Juri will show how long-term revenue scenarios are built using: 

  • Power price scenarios and fundamental modelling  

  • Historical and forward-looking datasets across multiple time horizons  

  • Scenario analysis frameworks for investment decisions  

Montel Analytics provides the long-term price scenarios, fundamentals and modelling capabilities needed to evaluate BESS revenues out to 2050 and beyond.  

 

Who should attend 

  • Investors and developers evaluating BESS projects in Germany  

  • Portfolio managers integrating storage into multi-asset portfolios  

  • Analysts building long-term revenue and risk models  

  • Power producers exploring storage as part of their commercial strategy
