Energy Storage PPA Procurement for Large Energy Users
We help large energy users structure and procure battery energy storage system (BESS) solutions under long-term agreements. Whether aimed at demand charge reduction, firming renewables, market arbitrage, or FCAS value, we guide the business case, procurement, and contracting.
Our services include:
Feasibility & Business Case
Techno-economic analysis of site load, tariffs, and value stack.
Procurement & Partner Selection
Vendor-neutral tendering and evaluation.
Contract Structuring
BESS PPA, shared savings, leasing, or tolling models.
Risk & Commercial Review
Performance guarantees, FCAS eligibility, and operational alignment.
Integration Support
Connection, metering, and asset co-optimisation with existing energy agreements.
We work across behind-the-meter and front-of-meter applications, and integrate storage planning with your broader energy transition roadmap.
