Tarvo Õng of Fusebox Energy Highlights the Revenue Potential of Energy Storage and Behind-the-Meter Asset Management for Utilities

Tarvo Õng, CEO of Fusebox Energy, discusses the integration of energy storage into revenue streams through flexible asset management. With a decade's experience in managing virtual power plants (VPP) and trading across various countries, Fusebox offers its platform as software-as-a-service to energy companies for efficient asset aggregation and control. Utilities aim not only to monitor but also manage assets on-site harmoniously before entering ancillary markets or expanding offerings geographically. Batteries provide utilities with opportunities for grid volatility arbitrage while maintaining competitiveness against larger players. Managing behind-the-meter industrial and commercial assets requires automated systems due to complexity; these systems offer competitive advantages by enabling demand response flexibility and participation in balancing markets without high operational costs. The smallest manageable unit is one kilowatt within multi-megawatt portfolios that can engage fast reaction reserves effectively. Additionally, third-party trading services often suffice over self-trading expertise when connecting external EMS providers via platforms like Fusebox’s—simplifying complex market interactions including billing post-trade reporting efficiently among stakeholders such as TSOs/DSOs.
