Previous Agenda

A networking breakfast with moderated roundtables.

The morning will start with a plenary session with attendees of the Battery Show Europe, Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Technology Expo and Energy Storage Summit. Sessions will include detail on the state of the industry, cost of raw materials and the direction of travel for manufacturing and R&D. These plenary sessions will be led by CxO speakers before allowing the audience to break down into four detailed streams of content. There will be a short morning break, allowing for networking with attendees and exhibitors.

• To contract or not to contract revenues – Defining the right setup requires alignment with financiers’ needs and partners need to be selected carefully
• Grid constraints as a value lever – Grid connections are THE bottleneck of the BESS build-out. Effectively managing grid constraints becomes the new normal
• Experience is key – With projects becoming larger and the market environment gaining in complexity, deep storage expertise is essential for the project’s success

This keynote panel will explore one of the most important factors for growth in energy storage – the evolving business case in Germany.

• What makes a BESS project bankable in Germany?
• Technology choices, how to make projects more attractive to investors and controlling CapEx costs
• What is the best combination of revenue stacking, and how do we see these evolving in the near future?
• What makes the German business case stand out from the rest of Europe?

• How enspired created a clear, audited framework for portfolio performance transparency to help investors and asset owners assess commercial storage performance in live trading environments
• How asset sizing, performance warranties, and regulatory constraints shape real-world battery operations and portfolio outcomes

This session will be led by experts on the commercialisation of energy storage assets. It will go into more detail on the best combination of revenue streams for energy storage projects and how owners and operators guarantee revenue. This in-depth session will provide an overview of how best to make money from BESS projects in Germany.

• Intraday opportunities, arbitrage and participation in wholesale markets
• System services for BESS currently available to operators
• Future services
• Maximising the value of your BESS assets and understanding the upsides

• The energy transition & the need for flexibility
• How Flexionics Energy delivers next-generation flexibility
• Real monetization for data centers & energy storage operators
• A unique business model & proven track record

What do current and future investors and capital providers think about doing deals in a merchant-led, high-volatility market such as Germany?

• What does financing assets on a fully merchant business case look like?
• What are some of the challenges and advantages of investing in a deep market such as Germany, compared to other geographies?
• Return on investment and views on the long-term trajectory of majority merchant assets
• What is the best stage of the project to get involved – factoring in operational and construction costs

What lessons can be learned from optimising assets in diverse markets, with differing revenue streams available to tap into and different market mechanisms on offer?

As electricity markets face growing volatility and more frequent negative price events, battery storage in co-location with PV systems is emerging as a key revenue driver. This presentation explores how intelligent storage integration and market-oriented optimization can turn challenges into opportunities—maximizing revenues, minimizing losses, and unlocking the full potential of flexible energy assets.

In this presentation, we are interested in finding out which European country is the most attractive for BESS investments.

We assess the attractiveness of Germany, the UK, France, Spain, Italy, and the Netherlands based on their:

• Electricity systems
• Wholesale markets and ancillary services
• Regulatory environments

Meet thousands of like-minded decision-makers at our complimentary Networking Receptions on Tuesday 3rd June and Wednesday 4th June, 4:30-6:00pm at Rothaus Park. Expect light bites and beverages, live music, raffles for fun prizes and the opportunity to discuss ideas with top industry experts across multiple sectors!

The morning will start with a plenary session with attendees of the Battery Show Europe, Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Technology Expo and Energy Storage Summit. Sessions will include detail on the state of the industry, cost of raw materials and the direction of travel for manufacturing and R&D. These plenary sessions will be led by CxO speakers before allowing the audience to break down into four detailed streams of content. There will be a short morning break, allowing for networking with attendees and exhibitors.

Leon Gosh, Founder and Managing Director of Cellect Energy, will discuss key challenges in managing utility-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). Based on interviews with over 50 BESS asset managers, the session will explore issues such as data overload, control infrastructure, and multi-stakeholder coordination. It will also be presented how Cellect Energy’s software solutions—Cellect Platform, Control, and Data Management—help simplify daily operations, improve data handling, and support smoother collaboration across teams. Backed by industry experience and succesful customer implementation, the session offers practical insights into improving BESS operations in a growing and complex market.

This keynote session will bring international expertise from successful BESS players to the stage, to share insights around building a bankable business case, financial and offtake structures, building projects, and making money from them. This is the perfect session to find out insights from those who have already built BESS and monetized them.

The European regulatory framework relevant to the battery industry is undergoing a transformative shift to drive end-to-end value chain activity and build a resilient supply chain. Key frameworks such as the EU Battery Regulation, Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA) and Rules of Origin (ROO) under trade agreements are shaping the future of the industry. These policies aim to enhance circularity, reduce dependency on foreign critical materials and ensure ethical sourcing while fostering local manufacturing and innovation.

This talk explores the evolving regulatory environment, focussing on the implications for battery manufacturers, technology developers, and end-users across Europe and in the UK. It provides an insight into the state of the battery supply chain in Europe through to 2035 and how companies are responding to regulation and associated market shape. It also examines how sustainability requirements, material sourcing constraints and local content rules (ROO) may influence investment decisions, supply chain strategies, and the pace of battery technology deployment for some chemistries.
