Wholesale Energy
Market Participation

Generate More Revenue with Stem’s Intelligent Solution

Energy storage can provide a variety of wholesale market services. With federal policy continuing to open up wholesale markets to energy storage, these revenues are poised to account for a growing share of value streams for both front of meter (FTM) and behind the meter (BTM) storage projects.

Stem leverages our best-in-class Athena software to help a range of customers – including independent power producers, utilities, financiers, and large business customers – maximize wholesale market revenues from eligible projects.

Stem services include:

Economic Modeling & Analysis

Athena Software Integration

Stem Makes Energy Market Participation Seamless

Stem’s combination of program expertise and best-in-class software offer a differentiated solution for wholesale energy market participation. Athena co-optimizes multiple value streams in real time across retail and wholesale energy markets – under complex tariffs like New York’s Value of Distributed Energy Resources (VDER); in BTM projects that interface with wholesale markets, such as PJM and California’s Demand Response Auction Mechanism (DRAM); and in FTM projects that participate directly in wholesale markets such as ISO New England, California ISO (CAISO), and Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT)

Maximize Market Revenues

Effective market participation depends on reliable, real-time communication. After submitting an optimized bid, Athena dispatches energy in response to market signals and shares verified performance data with market operators so asset owners can receive payments. Stem’s AI is also constantly learning and improving its algorithms, in concert with market trading partners.

Optimize Bidding Strategy

Optimal bidding in deregulated energy markets is a complex process that demands advanced software. Athena’s bidding platform generates multiple data forecasts and then overlays economic and operational constraints to produce energy bids that are optimized for each market interval.

Automate Program Management & Compliance

Electricity market rules and contract requirements can change many times over a project’s lifetime, significantly altering how the asset generates revenue. Stem’s expert team continuously updates Athena to account for location-based incentives, compliance requirements, tariffs, and operational changes in order to maximize project revenue.

Enhance Storage Lifecycle Value

Athena actively manages battery state-of-charge (SOC), cycling, and other operational factors to extend performance and delay degradation – sometimes well beyond initial manufacturer estimates – to the benefit of program and warranty compliance and overall project value.

Enable Optimal Design

Designing successful projects requires sophisticated analysis of project- and market-specific inputs. Athena's algorithms combined with Stem’s modeling capabilities, project evaluation tools, and market expertise incorporate thousands of data points to simulate how a project would perform throughout its life.

Support Financing & Bankability

With unparalleled insight into lifetime performance plus adaptability that maximizes project value, Stem supports project financing efforts. Athena can operate projects to meet a variety of different financial targets, ensuring the financial profile needed to receive funding.
