Frequently asked
Questions and answers.
Coverage, revenue streams, and how to start.
What is Utilyzed?
Utilyzed is an independent analytics platform for battery energy storage projects. You screen sites for feasibility and market participation, model what the battery earns, and build the pro forma.
Who is it for?
Storage developers who need to know which sites pencil and what a battery will earn, and the capital providers who finance them. Both work from the same numbers. Operators track actual results against the model.
What does Utilyzed cover?
Value streams in seven US ISOs, one Ontario program, and 74 utilities in 32 states. Grid Intel provides data analytics and intel on key markets across North America.
Can I start before I have meter data?
Yes. For a behind-the-meter project, start with an estimated load profile or with figures that you enter by hand. When the meter data arrives, add it and update the model.
Which revenue streams can the platform model?
Energy arbitrage and demand-charge reduction apply in any market. New York adds the VDER value stack and Special Case Resources. PJM adds capacity and peak load contribution reduction. Other markets carry a capacity or reserve product.
How do I start?
Book a demo and bring one project. Tell us where it is, what stage it is at, and what you need to decide. After the call, we set up access for your project.
