Pascal Lefarth of Intilion AG Discusses Key Milestones and Challenges in Battery Energy Storage Systems from Permit to Performance

Pascal Lefarth from Intilion AG discusses best practices for battery energy storage systems, emphasizing the importance of end-to-end solutions. He outlines six key milestones in such projects: site selection, financing, dealing with authorities, grid access, construction management (EPC), and operation. Site selection requires consideration of grid access proximity and solid ground conditions due to heavy container weights. Environmental protection is crucial in Germany regarding fire, water, and noise issues. Financing involves developing a business case supported by risk assessments to secure funding. Navigating authority requirements can be challenging; necessary permits include building applications that may require surveys based on location specifics like noise or fire hazards. Grid access demands proof of serious intent before DSOs grant it while ensuring control over stability through valid concepts tailored per site circumstances is vital for maintaining grid integrity during operations spanning up to 50 years—Intilion aids customers throughout these phases via questionnaires/checklists facilitating optimal decisions alongside leveraging banking networks/experience aiding unfamiliar banks securing availability guarantees demanded by financiers seeking high system reliability levels typically around 95%-97%.
