Session on Asset Optimization: Exploring Efficient Use of Increased Energy Storage Installations with Expert Insights and Q&A Panel

Nina Munzke from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology introduces a session focused on asset optimization, particularly in stationary energy storage systems. Her team specializes in sizing, intelligent system control, and performance optimization. Nina Munzke notes significant recent growth in energy storage installations: around 550 megawatt hours for commercial and industrial (CNI) storage—roughly 50% increase—and about 1.6 gigawatt hours for utility-scale systems, marking at least a 25% rise over the past year. The key theme of the afternoon session is enhancing efficiency and economic use of these growing assets. The format includes four presentations followed by a Q&A segment facilitated via Slido, an interactive tool allowing participants to submit questions during presentations. Felix Jedamzik will present first; he leads Flex sales teams at coneva and has extensive expertise in flexibility markets from his eight-year tenure at Next Kraftwerke. He focuses on developing multi-use case strategies for commercial industry sites.

Battery storage systems are first and foremost a tool in the energy market. Unlike a hammer, they can be used in a variety of ways. In recent years, including at the ees Europe Conference, the use cases for storage have been discussed in detail. Whether battery storage turns out to be a successful tool depends on how it is used. In this session, we will show you how battery storage systems are being optimized, e.g. in virtual power plants, to maximize their return on investment and avoid negative consequences, such as accelerated aging.
