“At what price do commercial batteries pay back?”
Join James Allston live in the C&I Theatre at Solar & Storage Birmingham for an informative session on 'Rethinking Battery Economics.'
The key concept? Batteries are not solar - so they should not be treated in the same way. In his session James will explore:
- How switching to thinking about battery revenues, not costs, is key to unlocking battery investment opportunities
- Why taking a holistic view of project design considering solar, battery and tariff optimisation is critical for creating genuinely valuable projects
- How to use feasibility-first selling focused on value, not costs, to close more commercial solar and batteries projects
A battery doesn’t create value by existing. It has to be told what to do. So the right question changes from “What price makes this work?” to “How will we control the battery to create enough value?”
