Habitat Energy is expanding into PJM. Battery markets don’t stay simple for long. At small scale, participation is straightforward. At large scale, performance depends on optimization. PJM is entering that transition now. We’ve seen it firsthand in ERCOT, where we manage over 1.8 GW of battery storage and renewables across increasingly complex market conditions. While each ISO operates differently, the fundamentals of high-performance battery optimization carry across markets—and that’s exactly what we’re bringing to PJM. If you’re developing or operating assets in PJM, come talk to us. https://lnkd.in/g3zFAbax

Delivering the full potential of battery storage and renewable energy
About us
Habitat Energy provide a state-of-the-art optimisation and trading platform for grid-scale battery storage and renewables in the UK, US, and Australia. Habitat Energy was founded with the belief that making battery storage and renewable energy assets investable at scale is a vital step towards delivering a low carbon future and the preservation of our habitat for generations to come. Our approach combines advanced machine-learning and algorithmic approaches to forecasting and optimisation with an experienced in-house trading team. In addition, our dynamic approach to degradation cost management can extend the life of your battery asset, optimising lifetime project returns, not just short-term revenue. Habitat Energy is a market leader working closely with the biggest developers and investors. We support the design and financing of new-build projects through our understanding of the revenue model and broader market dynamics, backed up by the ability to deliver revenues once assets are built. Contact us if you’d like to discuss how Habitat Energy could help you.

⚡ 5GW of battery storage and renewable energy assets under contract ⚡ We're very proud to announce that Habitat Energy now has over 5GW of battery storage and renewable energy assets under contract, demonstrating our ability to consistently deliver exceptional returns for our clients across three of the world’s largest energy storage markets: Australia, the UK and the US. In the last 12 months alone we have doubled our assets under contract, partnering with leading asset owners and investors in the energy transition, including Octopus Energy, Ørsted, UBS, Gresham House, and Eku Energy to name but a few. Beyond our core battery storage optimization services we've also innovated with new services including co-optimization of solar+storage, physical and virtual tolling, physical asset performance management, hedging and risk management. With the global battery storage market estimated to increase 34-fold by 2050 - reaching up to 9TW - there is a an ever-growing need for advanced trading and optimization services that maximize revenues and manage risk that Habitat Energy will continue to serve. "From the outset Habitat Energy has fused cutting-edge algorithmic and technical tools with human know-how to transact the right quantity of electricity at the right time in the right marketplace. Reaching 5GW of assets under contract is testament to our incredible team, the technology we have built, and our absolute commitment to our clients. I couldn't be more proud of everything we have achieved since the company was founded in 2017 and look forward to seeing what the next decade brings." Andrew Luers, CEO, Habitat Energy

December 2025 wasn't a normal month in ERCOT. It was the launch of RTC+B, a major change in how batteries participate in the Texas market. It takes time for ERCOT data to settle, but the first benchmark is now out. In that first month, Habitat Energy achieved an 84% TBX capture rate, shown in Modo Energy’s latest analysis. The highest among optimizers. Fleet median: 35%. Our team spent months preparing systems, models, and trading strategies for the RTC+B transition. We're proud of how they executed when the market flipped on. Full report: https://lnkd.in/evmc5mpc

Spring is in the air and this International Women’s Day we'd like to thank and celebrate the brilliant women on our team! Over the last 12 months we've continued to expand across Australia, the UK and the US, with over 5GW of battery storage and renewable energy assets under contract. In this time, we're thrilled to have: ⚡ welcomed 14 women to the team, raising the gender balance of the company to 31% (up from 28% a year ago) ⚡ increased female representation on our leadership team ⚡ grown our global Women-in-Habitat network to 41 women ⚡ hosted our first all-women panel on careers in energy storage, featuring members of WinES (Women in Energy Storage). Every step brings us closer to our goal: to build a workforce that is representative of society as a whole and create an environment in which individual differences are recognised and valued. But for today we'd simply like to thank every woman on our team helping to drive a clean energy future. Sharing the view from our office in Oxford, England this week where the blue skies gave everyone a lift! ☀️ #IWD2026 #InternationalWomensDay #HabitatEnergy #GiveToGain

Co-locating solar and storage improves the economics of both assets, but it also raises the bar for operational sophistication. 📣 Today we’re announcing Habitat Energy’s first U.S. co-located solar + storage project: with Birch Creek Energy in Bee County, Texas 🐝 This type of asset has the complexity we thrive on. As QSE and optimization partner, Habitat has already supported the project through Production Load Date and is now guiding it through the early stages of commissioning. Another signal of how integrated renewable portfolios are evolving in ERCOT. More details on the partnership here ↓ https://lnkd.in/gYPP6H-w

Most QSE systems were built for a different era. An era of steady thermal generation. Slow ramps. Predictable schedules. Batteries don’t operate that way. In five-minute markets (and increasingly in real-time co-optimization) performance depends on how tightly telemetry, optimization, and market execution stay aligned. A small mismatch between MW offers and available MWh can quietly compound into material performance differences over time. That’s why the QSE isn’t just a compliance role. It’s part of the control system. We unpack what a dynamic QSE looks like in our latest blog, and why precision at the telemetry layer matters more than ever. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gwbusyQ5

🔋 What separates battery performance on paper from real-world results? Our Head of UK Business Development Ralph Johnson joined Adam Sroka on the Hypercube Consulting Energy Podcast to explore what really drives results in modern energy markets, including availability, optimisation, market design and revenue certainty. They take a deep dive into the critical role of storage in a renewable-powered world, battery operational requirements, and the need for bankable, long-term returns to deliver future scale. 🎧 Listen in here and find Ralph at this week's Energy Storage Summit! https://lnkd.in/ei3QWdFY Thank you Adam for hosting and inviting Habitat Energy to participate! #StorageSummit #BatteryStorage #BESS #Trading #Optimisation

Winter risk is about managing uncertainty, and Fern was a good reminder in ERCOT. With batteries now at scale, that uncertainty can finally be hedged on both sides. 👇 BESS-derived hedging this winter https://lnkd.in/gX6PNFRJ
