    Investing in front-of-the-meter BESS

    Participants build an investment case for a front-of-the-meter (FTM) BESS project: which market, which revenue stack, and which assumptions are doing the heavy lifting in the model.

    Market selection

    Comparing ERCOT, CAISO, GB, Germany, Italy and Australia by volatility, ancillary services depth, and regulatory stability.

    Revenue model

    Stacking arbitrage, frequency services, and capacity, and forecasting the merchant tail when contracts expire.

    Sensitivities

    Capex per MWh, augmentation cadence, cycle assumptions, and price-spread compression as more storage enters the market.
