BESS
Through a partnership, Acacia Energy & YEF are able to deploy and operate a fleet of batteries using a common platform that is autonomously operated, which enables deliverance of community benefits.
The Challenge
YEF needed a partner who could buy and sell electricity for the batteries on the wholesale market, operate the battery connection point, and monitor and control the fleet of batteries.
The Solution
Partner with Acacia Energy to utilise Acacia Energy's proprietary PowerXchange platform and market registration
The Impact
As a result of Acacia Energy's involvement, optimisation of the batteries value across revenue and cost streams every 5 minutes has been achieved. Further to this, revenue is generated whenever the battery discharges, which has maximised the value of the battery. These services have provided opportunity for the community to transition away from fossil fuels and towards renewables.
