A successful business model of a battery storage system needs to take into account electricity system transition, market and regulatory barriers, among others. Last but not least, it is important to consider innovations in other technologies for the design of a business model. Copyright © 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Stacking of payments is the most common way to make the business model for energy storage bankable whilst optimizing services to the grid. In its simplest version it contains: Let the best technology provide the service(s) the grid needs. Thinking of technology first could do the grid a diservice. l o n e p ro je c t s ? I t d e p e n d s ... .
These barriers include the legitimacy of energy storage to participate or provide services to the grid and the lack of clarification on the functional classification of energy storage (e.g. whether they are classified as generation, transmission and distribution assets).
Business models of battery storage remain vague given its early stages of development but it is clear that there is no universal business model for batteries given the breadth of applications. In this study, we review the main components of existing business models and highlight the areas to be strengthened in a novel business model.
Business model Definitions of business models are very diverse [13,14]. Nevertheless, they usually explicitly address several components that are important in a business model. For example, Chesbrough and Rosenbloom address the significance of generating revenue in a business model.
Power systems around the world have undergone significant transitions towards a decentralization and decarbonization with higher requirements on supply security and flexibility. Technology advancement helps to improve energy efficiency and bring down cost, which in turn promote the growth of battery storage internationally.
