Who it's forStorage

Battery storage (BESS)

Every rule your batteries answer to, as it changes.

Register each battery storage project and follow its ISO registration to commercial operation. NERC, market and accreditation rule changes are matched to the batteries they affect, with action-by dates and owners.

What changes for you

The rules that change for battery storage teams.

Storage answers to more moving rules than almost any other resource: how it registers, how it rides through, how it is dispatched and how it is counted.

01

NERC Category 2 IBR registration

Batteries of 20 MVA or more connected at 60 kV or above register with NERC as inverter-based resources, with dated compliance milestones.

02

Ride-through, models and cold weather

PRC-024 and PRC-029 frequency and voltage ride-through, MOD-026 model verification and EOP-012 cold weather preparedness.

03

ERCOT RTC+B

Real-time co-optimization with batteries: state of charge, ancillary service awards and ECRS, as the Protocols are revised.

04

Capacity accreditation

How each ISO counts storage toward resource adequacy, including ELCC classes in PJM, and the changes each auction brings.

05

Interconnection

FERC Order 2023 cluster studies and each ISO's queue rules, from application to commercial operation.

06

Storage tax credits

The 48E investment credit for storage, with Treasury guidance as it is issued.

What you get

What PhronEdge gives battery storage teams.

Watch it work

A registration plan for each battery

Register a storage project in any of the 7 US ISOs and follow its path to commercial operation, milestone by milestone, with the NERC registration steps for Category 2 IBRs.

Obligations mapped per battery

The NERC standards, ISO protocols and state rules that apply to each battery, each one cited.

Changes matched to each battery

When ERCOT revises RTC+B or NERC adopts a new standard, the Attention tab shows which batteries it affects and the action-by date.

Prices beside the rules

Real-time and day-ahead prices, load against peak and grid conditions across the 7 US ISOs in the Market tab.

Cited answers from Relay

Ask how a ride-through rule or a state of charge requirement applies. Every answer cites the standard or protocol section it came from.

Incident response mapping

Report an event and get each reporting duty that applies, with its deadline and who to notify.

In the product

A rule changes. You see which battery it hits.

PhronEdge maps the change to the battery it affects, explains what changed and why it matters for that resource, gives the act-by date and tells you what to do.

How it works

How battery storage teams use PhronEdge, in 3 steps.

1

Register the battery

Give its ISO, its capacity and where it stands, from interconnection request to operating.

2

See what applies

The NERC, ISO and state rules that apply to each battery are mapped and cited.

3

Work the Attention list

Changes arrive matched to the battery, with an action-by date and an owner.

Questions

What battery storage teams ask us.

Something else on your mind? Book a call with us.

A battery of 20 MVA or more connected at 60 kV or above falls under NERC's Category 2 registration criteria. Register it and the plan shows the NERC steps beside the ISO steps.

All 7 US ISOs: ERCOT, PJM, MISO, CAISO, SPP, NYISO and ISO-NE. Each plan follows that ISO's own registration process.

Yes. Register solar paired with storage as a hybrid project and the plan follows the hybrid path in its ISO.

Essentials includes 1 registered asset. Platform includes 5. Enterprise is sized to your portfolio.
