Technical Analysis for BESS & Hybrid Projects
LEVERAGING OUR KNOWLEDGE FOR BESS & HYBRID PROJECTS
Since 2008, the Quintas group has provided solar PV projects across Europe with first-class asset management, laying a solid foundation for our Advisory services, which have developed in parallel with the market. Quintas Energy has been managing batteries since 2015 in the UK and subsequently in Australia. As a renewable energy player that spotted the potential of battery storage early, we regard BESS services as an integral part of the solutions we offer today.




INTRODUCTION TO THE SPANISH AND ITALIAN MARKETS
Wide-ranging studies assess the long-term viability of BESS or hybrid projects. We analyse operational behaviours, potential revenues, and quantify risks associated with market fluctuations. Detailed financial projections and KPI evaluations help you make strategic decisions based on solid data.
Better understand your project’s potential profitability. By integrating technical performance data from tools like Paravane, we offer clear yet robust financial models, providing detailed insights into key financial metrics, a solid idea of future revenue and helping demonstrate economic feasibility to potential investors.
REVENUE STREAM ANALYSIS & OPTIMISATION
Since BESS projects have high upfront capital costs and variable operational expenses, relying on a single revenue source often makes them economically uncertain. Analysing revenue stacking ensures better risk management, profitability, and project sustainability, making BESS projects more attractive to investors. This approach is especially critical in competitive evolving energy markets, such as Spain and Italy.
We analyse the multiple revenue streams a BESS project can access. This involves identifying potential revenue sources, estimating their value, understanding associated costs, and assessing market and regulatory conditions. As well as boosting financial returns, it supports better investment decisions, competitive bids in energy auctions, improved project financing and bankability.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK ANALYSIS & LEGAL ADVISORY
Processes are managed efficiently for technical feasibility – including coordinating grid access and connection permits with network operators, monitoring permit status, and resolving administrative challenges. All deadlines are carefully managed, ensuring compliance with project milestones.
We help draft and negotiate key agreements, including land contracts, EPC, O&M, Asset Management, PPA, and SPA. We ensure alignment with local and regional regulatory frameworks while optimising contractual terms to safeguard project interests and enhance profitability.
Comprehensive support is provided for all tenders or auctions, including preparing documentation, fine tuning bids for specific criteria, and developing competitive strategies. We analyse risks and tailor solutions to match market requirements and ensure success.
PUBLIC TENDER
We develop comprehensive technical and legal documentation tailored to tender specifications. This includes energy performance models, grid connection strategies, and CAPEX/OPEX analyses. Our team ensures that each proposal is strategically aligned with scoring criteria to maximise competitiveness in public tenders for grid access and connection rights.
We support clients in public auctions for capacity markets and price-setting mechanisms, ensuring optimal bidding strategies. Our experts design financial models and operational strategies to meet auction conditions while enhancing project profitability and long-term feasibility.
Understanding the regulatory landscape is key to a successful bid. We conduct in-depth analyses of tender rules and national incentives for BESS projects, such as MACSE (Italy), PERTE ERHA (Spain), and other capacity mechanisms. By incorporating all available incentives, we help improve proposal scoring and financial viability.
We conduct a comprehensive risk analysis, covering technical, environmental, and financial factors. Using advanced simulations (e.g., Paravane) and performance models, we validate system feasibility, optimise CAPEX and OPEX, and refine project layouts to ensure technically robust and financially competitive proposals.
