Energy storage battery procurement contract
The negotiation of an engineering,procurement and construction(EPC) agreement for a battery energy storage systems (BESS) project typically surfaces many of the same contractual risk
View DetailsThe first, and the topic of an earlier article, is the general contracting structure. Developers of battery energy storage system, or BESS, projects are using a multi-contractor, split-scope contracting structure instead of the more traditional single-contractor, turnkey approach. (See "Battery Purchase Contracts" in the December 2021 NewsWire.)
For example, if a developer has a number of projects supplying battery storage under a single offtake contract, then it might prefer a single battery procurement contract aggregating liability in the collective project, given that liability under the offtake contract may be connected for failure to develop the collective project.
Bidding for energy storage tenders is extremely lucrative for companies of all sizes. Tendering authorities and private companies release thousands of contracts worth millions for procurement of energy storage. Global Tenders stands out as the largest platform dedicated to tenders and government contracts.
For standalone energy storage contracts, these are typically structured with a fixed monthly capacity payment plus some variable cost per megawatt hour (MWh) of throughput. For a combined renewables-plus-storage project, it may be structured with an energy-only price in lieu of a fixed monthly capacity payment.
