Project development
Define the requirement, site constraints, technical design, economics, and risk.
The BAAS model
Battery capacity, delivered as a service.
BAAS structures project capital, delivers the system, and manages performance throughout the contract term.
A complete service model
One provider from development to operations.
The agreement defines capacity, economics, and responsibilities. BAAS manages the infrastructure and performance.
Capital structuring
Build a project-specific capital and payment structure—subject to underwriting.
System delivery
Integrate BESS, power conversion, controls, protection, testing, and commissioning.
Lifecycle operations
Manage dispatch, maintenance, warranties, degradation, reporting, and performance.
What the service defines
Define the service in five terms.
MW
Controllable charging or discharging power.
MWh
Usable stored energy and service duration.
Availability
Service windows, maintenance allowances, and readiness.
Response
Required timing for dispatch, transition, or resilience.
Lifecycle
Contract term, capacity retention, augmentation, and end-of-term treatment.
Traditional equipment purchase
Buy and assemble
- Customer funds the equipment
- Customer coordinates design and integration
- Customer manages performance and degradation
- Operating value depends on in-house capability
Battery as a Service
Contract for capacity and value
- Project-specific capital structure
- Integrated development and delivery
- Defined responsibilities and performance
- Long-term operating and asset management
Project-specific capital structures may reduce upfront investment, subject to underwriting, customer credit, contract term, and final agreements.
Commercial structures
Project-specific payment structures.
Capacity availability
Contracted capacity fee
Payments tied to MW, service windows, duration, response, and availability.
Shared value
Savings or revenue share
A measured share of savings, incremental revenue, or other verified value.
Hybrid
Fixed + variable
Capacity, energy, operations, and performance-based payments combined.
