With the battery storage system in Hettstedt (Saxony-Anhalt), Encavis AG is launching a new chapter in the flexibility of its renewable energy portfolio. The 12 MW/24 MWh system will be optimized by Entrix, a specialist in AI-based multi-market optimization of battery storage systems, across all relevant electricity markets – including balancing services (FCR, aFRR), the day-ahead, and the intraday market. Real-time market data, the state of charge, and technical parameters are intelligently combined to maximize the battery's economic performance – both in short-term trading and in alignment with the broader generation portfolio of Encavis’ wind and solar assets.
The project is technologically complemented by TokWise, a software provider specializing in AI-based portfolio management. Encavis, TokWise, and Entrix are jointly developing an integrated solution for commercialization and portfolio optimization – with the goal of aligning electricity generation, consumption, and storage even more precisely with increasingly volatile market dynamics. The battery will not only be used for energy market participation, but also actively embedded into Encavis’ portfolio strategy – maximizing overall returns and enabling more flexible energy use. Entrix contributes to this digital ecosystem as an operational partner with leading expertise in trading and system integration in the battery storage sector.
The battery storage system – an mtu EnergyPack QG – is supplied by Rolls-Royce. Technical commissioning is nearing completion, and commercial operations are scheduled to begin in Q2 2025.
