Recording from Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Battery Business & Development Forum | Language: English | Duration: 71:11 .
Technical decisions made early in a battery storage project have long-term consequences for performance, reliability and revenue. This session examines how procurement, system design and construction choices affect project outcomes — and what developers should do differently.
The session is structured in two parts: first, a focus on procurement and component quality, including insights from factory audits; second, real-world cases from operating projects, analysing where design assumptions failed and how issues could have been avoided.
What you will discuss:
What developers should prioritize when procuring batteries and key components — including insights from factory audits
Which design choices have the biggest impact on long-term performance and flexibility
How to prepare systems for augmentation and changing market requirements
Typical issues observed in real projects, including SOC errors, PCS configuration, thermal management and control system integration
How to align EPC, system integration and operational strategy from the start
