Two identical batteries can generate very different returns in BESS projects, depending on how they are managed. Today, while market prices remain high, the greatest value is not created by the battery technology alone, but by efficient control, operation, and optimization. 🔋 However, over the next couple of years, the situation may change. As price volatility decreases, the technical parameters of the battery itself will become increasingly important. At that point, key factors such as DoD, the number of guaranteed cycles and how they are defined, the warranty period, […] - [BESS Strategy Today: Arbitrage or Balancing?](https://enerheads.com/general/1259-bess-strategy-today-arbitrage-or-balancing/): One of the most common questions about BESS is whether a battery can be used for both arbitrage and balancing services at the same time. 🔋 Technically, a battery can split its capacity—allocating part of it to trading (arbitrage) and reserving the rest for the balancing market. However, in practice today, the most common strategy is to keep the BESS in full readiness mode for balancing services. This is mainly driven by the high prices of balancing services and the significant value found in rare, hard-to-predict price “spikes.” Financially, it’s usually more выгод to prioritize availability for these moments. In […] - [BESS Projects: The True Cost of Cheap Hardware](https://enerheads.com/general/1256-bess-projects-the-true-cost-of-cheap-hardware/): One of the most costly mistakes in BESS projects is choosing the cheapest equipment—often from lesser-known or financially unstable manufacturers. ⚠️ While it may seem like a cost-effective decision at the start, over time there’s a real risk that you won’t have anyone to turn to for warranty support. For example, if an inverter fails and you’re forced to wait for a replacement from abroad, you could lose the ability to participate in the market and generate revenue for up to half a year. Keep in mind that it’s not just about the price of the equipment—reliability and capacity matter […] - [New Baseline Rules Unlock Higher Earnings for BESS](https://enerheads.com/general/1253-new-baseline-rules-unlock-higher-earnings-for-bess/): Starting this July, an expanded baseline calculation methodology will come into effect, changing how balancing services are accounted for. This means more energy will be monetized, and revenues for BESS projects within internal networks will increase. ⚡ Until now, the existing model often led to situations where BESS had to compensate for the difference between actual and forecasted consumption, reducing real earnings.As a result, part of the battery capacity remained “unaccounted” as flexibility service provision. From July, the introduction of submetering will allow flexibility services to be measured through a dedicated meter installed alongside the BESS, separating it from overall […] - [UAB Finnfoam Joins the Balancing Market with BESS Integration](https://enerheads.com/general/1250-uab-finnfoam-joins-the-balancing-market-with-bess-integration/): We’re proud to have UAB “Finnfoam” join our growing network. Operating in thermal insulation material manufacturing, the company continues its growth by unlocking new value streams through energy flexibility. Its 0.5 MW / 2-hour BESS will soon be participating in the electricity balancing market. 🤝 - [When the Market Breaks: What -10,000 EUR/MWh Tells Us About Flexibility](https://enerheads.com/general/1247-when-the-market-breaks-what-10000-eur-mwh-tells-us-about-flexibility/): On March 30, the Lithuanian balancing market saw a sharp anomaly — DOWN activation prices briefly dropped to -10,000 EUR/MWh, with around 12 MWh activated. 📉 This wasn’t just volatility. It exposed a structural gap. A lack of smaller bids and insufficient activated volumes meant larger capacities never entered the market. The result — extreme pricing and a fragile supply curve. It’s a clear signal: relying solely on solar curtailment (DOWN) is not enough to manage market dynamics. The same day, price swings in the Nord Pool exchange confirmed it — the market moves both ways. This is exactly where […] - [From Fresh Produce to Flexible Power: Baltic Fresh Fruit Joins the Grid](https://enerheads.com/general/1244-from-fresh-produce-to-flexible-power-baltic-fresh-fruit-joins-the-grid/): We’re excited to welcome UAB “Baltic Fresh Fruit” to our growing virtual power plant network. Operating in fresh fruit and vegetable import, the company is now unlocking the value of energy flexibility. Its 0.5 MW / 2-hour BESS will soon be participating in the electricity balancing market. - [UAB Julisa Steps Into Energy Flexibility with BESS Integration](https://enerheads.com/general/1236-uab-julisa-steps-into-energy-flexibility-with-bess-integration/): We’re excited that UAB “Julisa” has chosen to partner with us! The company is a professional in roundwood processing, operating at a significant scale. Its 0.5 MW / 2-hour BESS is being connected to our virtual power plant and will soon participate in the electricity balancing market. - [A New Wave Is Rising in the Electricity Balancing Market](https://enerheads.com/general/1232-a-new-wave-is-rising-in-the-electricity-balancing-market/): We are now enabling smaller companies with BESS connected to ESO and internal networks to participate in the balancing market. We have already formed the first virtual power plant from this type of clients and will soon begin the prequalification process with Lithuania’s electricity transmission system operator, Litgrid.

The project is scheduled to begin operations in 2026. The partnership combines Future Energy’s project development expertise with Enerheads’ optimization and trading capabilities. Once operational, the Raseiniai BESS will participate in balancing and energy markets, providing services such as frequency containment, reserve capacity, and intraday trading. This agreement strengthens both companies’ positions in the growing Lithuanian energy storage sector and supports the region’s transition toward a more flexible and renewable-driven electricity system. - [Baltic Market to Complete FCR-Buildout by Mid-2026](https://enerheads.com/general/1034-baltic-market-to-complete-fcr-buildout-by-mid-2026/): Our latest analysis suggests that the Frequency Containment Reserve (FCR) buildout in the Baltic markets will likely be completed by mid-2026 at the latest. The FCR phase is generally the period of highest financial returns for battery park operators. However, in the Baltics, we expect this period to be shorter than in the Nordic markets. The reason is twofold: Relatively shallow forecasted market demand, which limits long-term upside. Steadfast project developers, who are pushing projects forward quickly and accelerating capacity buildout. This combination means that early movers in the Baltic BESS market are well-positioned to capture attractive returns during the […] - [Cooperation Agreement with ARVILSA](https://enerheads.com/general/1032-cooperation-agreement-with-arvilsa/): Enerheads has signed a cooperation agreement with Arvilsa, UAB to optimize a 43 MW stand-alone Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in Tauragė, Lithuania. Scheduled to begin operations in 2026, the project will include an 86 MWh storage capacity with a two-hour duration. Arvilsa is responsible for developing the facility, while Enerheads will provide optimization and trading services. The BESS will participate in energy and balancing markets, including FCR, aFRR, mFRR, as well as day-ahead and intraday trading. This partnership marks an important step in strengthening Lithuania’s grid flexibility and supporting the integration of renewable energy. The project is also aligned […] ## Pages - [Cookie Policy](https://enerheads.com/cookie-policy/) - [Contact](https://enerheads.com/contact/): We are here to help you Discuss your battery revenue optimization We’re here to help you unlock the full potential of your battery assets.
