Episode description

As the world of battery energy storage grows, so does the opportunity for strategic investment. Ben Guest has been investing in battery energy storage systems (BESS) since the beginning, and is the Managing Director and Lead Fund Manager at Gresham House New Energy - which has the largest BESS portfolio in Great Britain. Ben joins Quentin to discuss:

• The history and evolution of markets for batteries in GB.
• Which elements of the battery energy storage model are most mature (and which are lagging behind).
• Why floor price contracts don’t make sense from an investment point of view.
• The increasing complexity of specialist BESS optimisation.
• And, of course, where Gresham House fits into all of this.

Gresham House is a specialist asset manager, implementing alternative investment solutions to support a more sustainable future. For more information on Gresham House, visit: https://greshamhouse.com
