Can I scale up the BESS Revenue Library contents to match my asset? For standalone BESS and co-located solar and storage.

Yes - we present revenues in £/MW. You can therefore scale up the revenues to suit the size of your asset.

Our model is built to forecast revenues for battery storage up to 300MW. We also forecast larger assets via a custom forecast, using the logic presented here.

How often do you update the model?

We update the model quarterly, but will add ad hoc improvements in reaction to market and regulatory changes. Please see our changelog (tab at the top of the page) to keep up with key updates.

The next model update will be in January 2025.

How do you navigate the documentation?

It's really easy to use the "Search" functionality to locate key words you're looking for.

Just hit command+k (on a mac) or control+k (on windows) and a search box will pop up. Use this to type in keywords relating to your question and you'll see every mention of that word throughout the documentation.

Can we use the forecast to finance new BESS projects?

You can use Modo Energy revenue forecasts to finance (equity or debt) an asset - whether it's a standalone battery or co-located solar PV and storage. We have been used across several GW of equity-backed projects, as well as for a growing number of debt-backed projects.

We are approved as 'bankable' by several lenders in the space - get in touch with [email protected] to find out more.

Our backtest, historic performance, and details on our low case are all included in our metholodogy.

We can also offer reliance on our curves.
