Cross-market optimization of battery storage systems (BESS)
Cross-market optimization of battery storage systems (BESS) is the key to exploiting the full potential of your energy storage systems. With the combination of flexibility marketing and our innovative Cross-market strategy we offer you the perfect solution for maximum yields and efficiency.
Our AI-supported allocation algorithm continuously analyzes all relevant electricity markets - including intraday, day-ahead, secondary (SRL) and primary control energy (PRL). Based on these evaluations, it identifies the optimal deployment options for your battery storage in advance:
Why ESFORIN for BESS marketing?
Our algorithms not only take market conditions into account, but also the technical specifications and limitations of your battery storage systems (BESS). In this way, we always ensure that your batteries operate at maximum efficiency, maximize the return on investment and at the same time protect the service life of your assets.
ESFORIN reacts with its clients' investments to price signals on relevant markets - including virtual cycles ("Virtual Cycling") - financial transactions without physically activating the battery, so to speak. This allows you to generate additional income without affecting the service life of your assets.

A typical day in the life of an ESFORIN battery
Case study: Extreme price example for a battery storage system in intraday trading
A battery storage system was available to us on an exemplary day D for 7:00 to 7:15 a.m. with a capacity of 7 MW. Our for the battery storage programmed algorithmsn then traded the 7 MW on the electricity exchange's intraday market from 4 p.m. on the day of the lecture (day D-1) within the plant-specific restrictions. On this winter day with little wind and sun, extreme prices could be observed on the intraday, so that shortly before gate closure, a profit of around € 1,575 was achieved within one minute for this quarter-hour product. Extreme price scenarios will increase significantly in future as the volatility of price trends increases rapidly due to the feed-in of more renewables. This can lead to extremely high prices in winter when there is little wind and sun and even negative prices at times when there is a lot of wind and sun.
Use cases for battery storage systems (BESS)
Download our case study with the battery storage company ju:niz Energy. You can look forward to insights into our collaboration and shared vision of a green future:
Stand-alone battery storage
Stand-alone battery storage systems are independent units with their own grid connection. With the help of the ESFORIN Flexibility marketing you can react to imbalances in the electricity grid and prices on the electricity exchange and on the balancing power markets. As a result, these battery storage systems can help stabilize the electricity grid and generate profits on the electricity exchange and on the balancing power markets.
Co-location battery storage
Co-location battery storage use the grid connection of new or existing renewable energy systems. These battery storage systems shift renewable electricity generation in times of increased demand and more attractive electricity prices on the exchange. There are different types of co-location battery storage systems. A distinction is made between storage systems that only use the physical grid connection, co-location storage systems that increase the market value of renewables and innovation tender systems that receive funding as part of the EEG innovation tender.
Behind-the-metre storage:
These battery storage systems are primarily installed to optimise self-consumption or reduce grid costs. At times, they have unutilised degrees of freedom that make it possible to generate additional profits. ESFORIN can help to increase the efficiency of these storage systems and thus maximise their profitability.
Wherever possible, ESFORIN uses the Cross-market approach in compliance with the ban on dual marketing. This means that several markets can be served at different times and at the same time. This increases the profit potential of battery storage systems and also serves to hedge risks against market price fluctuations and regulatory changes.
