Kyon Energy, a leading developer and operator of large-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) in Germany, has entered into two strategic framework agreements with battery optimizers enspired and Entrix. The aim of these partnerships is to advance the commercialisation of battery storage systems owned and developed by Kyon Energy. Each optimizer will get their own BESS projects to market across all available streams in order to maximize their revenues. The individual agreements mark an important milestone in the long-standing collaboration between Kyon Energy with enspired and Entrix and form the basis for the marketing of the first battery storage projects starting next year.
“The cooperation with Entrix and enspired has grown over the years and is now culminating in the marketing of our assets,” says Benedikt Deuchert, Head of Business Development & Regulatory Affairs at Kyon Energy. “This is a major step for Kyon: we are placing the commercialisation of our battery storage systems in the hands of two strong and experienced partners.”
Jürgen Mayerhofer, CEO and co-founder of enspired: “The key to maximizing battery profitability is optimizing the asset in a way that not just maintains but prolongs its health. This way, we can sustain high revenues over a longer period, ultimately resulting in higher profits. We are confident that Kyon Energy, their assets and grid itself will benefit from our collaboration.”
Steffen Schülzchen, CEO and Founder of Entrix, emphasises: “With our data-driven multi-market optimisation based on artificial intelligence, we are bringing large battery storage systems to market efficiently and creating real value for the grid together with Kyon Energy.”
With these two framework agreements, Kyon Energy strengthens its position as an operator of large battery storage systems and focuses on innovative, market-oriented commercialisation strategies. The partnerships enable efficient integration of storage into the energy market and make an important contribution to the stability of the power system. Choosing two exceptional optimizers helps to mitigate any risks.
Kyon Energy, which was acquired by TotalEnergies in January 2024, is now broadening its strategic approach and is consistently strengthening its role as a flexibility provider in the energy market. In addition to its existing role as a project developer, Kyon Energy is now also taking responsibility for operating its own battery storage facilities.
Kyon Energy is thereby strengthening its market position and addressing the growing demand for flexible energy solutions.
Large battery storage systems play a central role: they stabilise the power grid, enable the integration of renewable energies, and provide fossil-free flexibility — an essential building block for a future-proof energy system.
With more than 155 MW of storage already in operation and an active pipeline of over 7 GW, Kyon Energy is among the leading players in the German battery storage market. The partnerships with Entrix and Enspired are essential for implementing this pipeline efficiently and in line with market needs. They ensure smooth integration into the energy market, meet regulatory requirements, and maximise the economic as well as systemic potential of large battery storage systems.
Kyon Energy is a leading German project development company that focuses on large battery storage systems and, in addition to project planning, also acts as an EPCM (Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Management) and operator of the plants. With 135 MW of battery storage systems successfully developed and sold, over 1.7 GW of approved and ready for construction projects and a current project pipeline of over 7 GW, Kyon Energy is one of the market leaders in Germany. The company, which was acquired by TotalEnergies in January 2024, has a particular focus on the development and optimization of multi-use strategies, combined with deep expertise in project development and management as well as the regulation of large battery storage systems. Through its battery storage systems, Kyon Energy is a driver of the energy revolution and strives for a world powered by renewable, sustainable and independent energy.
