How can Entrix support me in negotiations with my grid operator?

  • Working with Entrix

We help you understand what you are being offered

A flexible connection agreement (FCA) trades capacity for control: your battery storage system connects earlier and accepts operational limits in return. We explain what each limit means and what regulatory background it rests on, so you can judge the offer.

You negotiate with a number for every limit

We calculate what each restriction costs your business case, so you go into the discussion with numbers. The type of restriction matters more than the FCA itself. Strict limits on charging power and combined caps on balancing services usually cost the most. A cap on frequency containment reserve (FCR) alone are usually easier to accept. That shows you where to focus your negotiations on.

We look for alternatives that work for both sides

Together with you, we look at the cause of a restriction and develop alternatives to put to your grid operator. One example is a dynamic limit that applies only when the grid needs it, instead of a fixed one. With Entrix LocalFlex, your battery follows such limits automatically and supports the local grid while they apply. Outside those periods, it trades across all markets as usual.

The earlier we join, the more room there is

Grid connection terms are usually fixed before a battery is built, and they shape what it can earn for its whole lifetime. We look at them with you early, while there is still room to shape them.
