Principles

A radically different forecast model

• Built in-house: our model built from the ground up gives a complete view of future revenues for battery energy storage
• Data-driven for storage: we use our industry-leading view of today to model storage for tomorrow and beyond to give you a data point per half-hour to 2060.
• Transparent: core inputs are based on reputable third parties like the NESO Future Energy Scenarios, NREL, Europe Economics, the IEA, and ICE. For full transparency, the model and method are detailed in this guide.
• Principled: we’ve built the forecast we would use. It’s plug-and-play into a business model, highly locational, and uses the latest Modo Energy benchmarking and research data to inform, adapt, and explain.
• A capacity buildout that reflects the real world: commercially scalable and proven technologies realistically respond to economics, with other parts of the generation mix remaining dependent on expected completion rates of announced policy programs. Our capacity expansion model optimizes the build-out of solar, wind, gas, and battery storage to meet evolving demand while maintaining system reliability.
