This session is a practical, operator-led conversation about the battery anomalies that erode utility-scale battery energy storage systems’ (BESS) capacity and availability, and what it takes to catch them before they materially impact the P&L.
Neoen, one of the world’s leading independent power producers, brings the operator’s perspective from a growing storage fleet, and PowerUp provides the analytics that make these patterns visible earlier. You leave with a clearer sense of where these losses hide and what it takes to act on them across your own portfolio.
Who’s it for: owners, operators, asset managers, and integrators of grid-scale BESS assets
Why you should attend:
- Get a view of the lost revenue. Inter-rack imbalance can lock usable energy away for weeks while no faults are reported by your operational systems. Knowing how much is locked tells you what the drift is costing you and gives you the justification to get it resolved properly.
- Defend the availability you’re paid for. Cooling anomalies build below shutdown limits, then force repeated rack disconnections that take energy offline for hours or days, often when you can least afford it. Catching the thermal drift early gives you the chance to protect both availability and the battery’s remaining useful life (RUL) as higher temperature accelerates aging.
- Add early detection to the systems you already run. Your BMS, EMS, and SCADA are essential, and they act exactly when they should, at fixed operating limits. Analytics that sit upstream of them catch the slow drift beneath those limits early, well before it reaches an alarm, so problems are detected while they are still small.
- Turn findings into faster decisions. Knowing what is wrong is only half the job; you still must decide what to fix first across a whole portfolio. See how continuous analytics can flag inter-rack imbalance directly, and get a first look at new PowerUp features built to help asset managers prioritize and act.
