BESS Feasibility

Turn a BESS hypothesis into a defensible techno-economic audit

BESS Feasibility combines sizing, load profile, peak shaving, self-consumption, tariff arbitrage and financial KPIs into a shareable techno-economic audit. It is built to quickly establish whether behind-the-meter storage makes sense, which assumptions drive the result and which levers can change the payback. Every number stays traceable, so you can explain to a client or a bank why the business case holds — or why it does not.

The problem

The risks of a CAPEX decision made on a fragile business case

Fragile, non-auditable spreadsheets

Feasibility models live in spreadsheets that break at the first change of assumption. Nobody — not even their author — can defend the numbers in front of a client or a lender.

Sizing decided on weak assumptions

Power and energy are chosen by gut feel, without a real load profile or an explicit link to peak shaving and self-consumption. The risk is over-sizing the CAPEX or missing the use case entirely.

No way to explain why the case holds

When the client or the bank asks 'why this payback?', the explicit assumptions and sensitivity are missing. Without a readable calculation chain, the deal stalls.

The solution

From hypothesis to an audit you can defend before client and bank

Sizing and load profile

Size power and energy from the site's real consumption profile. Tie the rating explicitly to the use cases — peak shaving, self-consumption, arbitrage — instead of guessing it.

Calculated financial KPIs

Compute LCOS, NPV, IRR and payback over a multi-year horizon with CAPEX, OPEX and degradation. KPIs derive from the stated assumptions, not from hand-entered numbers.

Sensitivity and value levers

Show how payback and NPV move as energy price, tariff spread and cycles vary. You immediately see which levers actually matter for that project.

Shareable audit

Export a techno-economic PDF with assumptions, results and sensitivity. It is the document you put on the client's or bank's table, not an Excel screenshot.

What's included in the plan

The essentials to turn a storage hypothesis into a defensible techno-economic audit.

Power/energy sizing driven by the site load profile
Peak shaving, self-consumption and tariff arbitrage modelled explicitly
Financial KPIs: LCOS, NPV, IRR, payback over a multi-year horizon
Degradation curve and its impact on usable capacity and KPIs
Sensitivity on key assumptions (price, spread, cycles)

Why choose BESS Feasibility

BESS Feasibility vs spreadsheets

Traceable calculation chain: every KPI traces back to its assumptions
Sizing tied to load profile and use cases, not guesswork
Defensible PDF audit in front of clients and lenders

Assess a BESS project before committing CAPEX

Start from feasibility: sizing, financial KPIs and sensitivity in a single shareable audit.
