Join us at Aurora Energy Research's public webinar on May 6, 2026
Germany's energy transition is transforming the power system — but phasing out conventional generation is also reducing the grid's inherent stability. To address this, German TSOs have introduced a new procurement mechanism for inertia (Momentanreserve), allowing batteries to provide grid-stability services once delivered by large synchronous generators. With contracts running from 2 to 10 years, this development could unlock a new, contract-based revenue stream for battery storage and fundamentally change the bankability conversation around BESS in Germany.
In this public webinar, Aurora Energy Research brings together market experts and industry practitioners to assess whether inertia could become a bankable component of BESS business cases in Germany — covering the procurement mechanism and its current status, technical requirements and the shift to grid-forming technology, key risks for developers and investors, and realistic revenue potential for both standalone and co-located green storage projects.
Listen to our Energy Market Expert, Marion Hübener, in the panel discussion alongside Carsten Wendt (SMA), Laura Hanneken (Statkraft) and Fluence on May 6, 2026, from 10:00 to 11:00 am CEST, and find out how these new 2-to-10-year contracts could provide a stable, long-term anchor for your battery's business case.
