STANDALONE STORAGE OR HYBRID SYSTEM ANALYSIS

The Fractal Model platform is a MS Excel package but has an additional JavaScript engine through a Microsoft Add-In (Fractal Model Add-In). The Fractal Model includes multiple calculation modes based on accuracy and response time. The High and Optimizer modes utilize the Add-In. Get increased speed (X5) and higher accuracy and modeling resolution (8760 x 40yr). The Add-In also enables an automatic optimizer that co-optimizes between hour energy and ancillary markets, and sub-hourly energy markets.

ONE TOOL FOR YOUR ENTIRE BESS LIFECYCLE

The Fractal Model provides project visibility and optimal outcomes across the entire project lifecycle.

  • PROJECT DEVELOPMENT

    Use the Fractal Model for pre-construction design and analysis or to determine bids for RFPs. Maximize long-term return for merchant and/or contracted business models. Optimize sizing and off-take structure.

  • RFP EVALUATION

    Use the Fractal Model to evaluate the impacts of CAPEX and OPEX. Quantify costs associated with auxiliary load, monitoring, degradation, warranty and performance guarantees, maintenance, etc. Compare bids for lowest total cost of ownership.

  • Due Diligence / M&A

    Use the Fractal Model to evaluate the risks and impacts of merchant revenue forecasts. Estimate degradation across multiple use cases, duty cycles and chemistries. Evaluation warranty options. Optimize design to maximize returns.

  • DISPATCH OPTIMIZATION

    Use the Fractal Model to evaluate the physical and financial impacts of a modified or new dispatch strategy for your operational BESS. Import pricing forecasts and perform sub-hourly revenue optimization for long term merchant participation.

OUR CUSTOMERS

The Fractal Model is used by electric utilities and tier-1 energy companies for BESS sizing and financial analysis.
