A DNV GL-led consortium is to develop a business case framework for community battery systems in partnership with storage integrator Alfen and flexibility aggregator Peeks.
The framework to be published in September will provide insight in the social and economic feasibility of community battery systems, DNV GL said.
“This new consortium will fine-tune the business case in consultation with grid operators, specifically focusing on what’s required for an agreement between the grid operators and the commercial party using distribution grid services from the storage system,” the company added.
“The major result from the project will be a business model framework and the accelerating adoption of community storage projects.”
