Powering your BESS future.
BESS Power is a specialist consultancy guiding developers and EPC contractors through the technical and commercial complexities of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) projects.
We provide the strategic oversight and deep market insight needed to de-risk procurement, secure grid connection, and navigate split-contract structures—ensuring your project is bankable, compliant, and optimized for long-term revenue.
We deliver hands-on support from early-stage feasibility to final commissioning, focusing on the critical linkages between technology, regulation, and finance.
Our end-to-end expertise ensures there will be no costly gaps in your project's development and delivery.
Procurement & Market Strategy
As BESS project models shift to split-contracting, we develop and execute tailored strategies to secure the best-in-class technology and partners while protecting your commercial interests.
We will
Engage Tier-1 battery OEM with proven installed base in Australia and specialist Balance of Plant (BOP) contractors.
Lead contract negotiations to secure robust, performance-backed agreements.
Advise on technology selection, equipment specifications, facility layouts, and capacity requirements to meet your performance and financial goals.
Align a complex network of stakeholders across multiple countries including the developers, suppliers, contractors, regulators, and financiers under a split-contract model.
Technical & Commercial Due Diligence
We provide developers and EPC contractors with the confidence to proceed through independent expert assessment.
We will
Review battery, power conversion system (PCS), and BOP specifications against Australian Standards (e.g. AS3000) and AEMO requirements.
Check compliance against relevant Australian grid and regulatory standards (e.g. AS3000).
Verify design principles and performance guarantees for round-trip efficiency, availability, degradation, and ramp rates to safeguard revenue.
Manage AEMO grid connection process (R0, R1, R2) to avoid delays and ensure compliance.
Assess EPC and equipment supply contracts, supply chain risks, and cost escalation clauses to secure financing.
Risk Management & Value Engineering
We identify, quantify, and mitigate the critical risks inherent in modern BESS projects, turning potential liabilities into advantages.
We will
Manage design and accountability gaps between separate technology, civil, and electrical contractors.
Define clear accountability across contracts to prevent coverage gaps in the absence of a single-point EPC.
Ensure design and construction align with all fire, environmental, acoustic, and planning requirements.
Engineer value across civil works, electrical design, and logistics without compromising on quality or performance.
In a market defined by complexity, we provide the clarity and confidence needed to succeed. Our team of industry-recognised experts leverages decades of direct Australian project experience to de-risk your development, protect your capital, and position your asset for maximum long-term value.
