De‑risking energy storage revenues is now essential for securing project finance, reducing costs and protecting investor returns. After a quieter-than-expected winter for flexibility revenues, storage owners are reassessing how to bring greater stability to their commercial strategies.
Our BESS aggregate index shows average revenues for winter 2025/26 sitting at ~£50/kW, a notable drop from ~£67/kW last winter. At the same time, 2026 has seen a surge in commercial innovation, with a record number of tolling agreements signed already.
We’ve already seen:
- The longest publicly announced tolling contract to date
- Co‑located assets increasingly participating
- New players establishing themselves in the market
These shifts reinforce how vital the right route to market is for owners looking to de‑risk their assets, secure long-term value, and maximise investment attractiveness.
