Speeding Up Energy Storage Development With Instant, Accurate Data and Automated Tools

Anza is excited to announce the release of our one-of-a-kind Energy Storage Pro data and analytics platform, providing in-depth, always current data and standardized product comparisons to support BESS development. Instead of spending endless hours gathering, validating, and normalizing quickly outdated product and technical data for a couple of systems or hiring expensive consultants with manual processes to help with RFP support or due diligence, you now have a market-wide view and efficiency like never before.

With Anza’s Energy Storage Pro subscription, you can obtain the data needed for designs, finance models, RFPs and to defend your project valuation, utilizing:

  • Up-to-date pricing (including relevant tariffs), CapEx, and OpEx data for deliveries 3 years out for more than 85% of U.S. BESS supply, including system, block, and PCS pricing
  • Over 150 product data points at your fingertips for faster due diligence, including product certifications and warranty information 
  • Downloadable documents, including layout and mechanical drawings, cash flow, and capacity maintenance modeling
  • Standardized side-by-side technical and commercial product comparisons
  • Smart filtering by supplier, commercial risk factors, technical specifications, and more to allow for quick short-listing of viable systems
  • Up-to-date domestic content data and online tools for assessing eligibility and ITC value
  • Estimated installation costs and system footprints for head to head product comparison

Take a closer look at how Anza’s Energy Storage Pro data and comparison tools can help you save weeks to months of time and improve your project profitability.

Anza’s on-demand data from across the market and technology to automate processes are helping our clients shorten process times and putting them in the position to increase profits. Here are a few recent client examples that showcase how Anza provides storage developers with the winning combination for their projects.

Detailed life cycle cost analysis & supplier data collection

Anza helped our client reduce their data collection and sizing analysis time from weeks to hours, freeing up resources for strategic decision-making. Their previous traditional approach of manual data collection and word-of-mouth recommendations had resulted in fewer options, higher project costs, and an inability to keep up with the pace of a rapidly evolving energy storage market.

Utilizing Anza’s Energy Storage Pro platform in their development process, they drastically reduced manual efforts and turnaround time with robust lifecycle cost analyses for more informed decision-making and real-time market insights. This shift to dynamic, data-driven processes was transformative for a resourced-constrained organization with limited technical staff available. They quickly gained the ability to compare products by CapEx, OpEx, total lifecycle costs, and domestic content eligibility, with more accurate modeling to win RFPs and the data necessary to help the client negotiate better with suppliers.

Automating BESS modeling and product evaluation

The development arm of a utility with a lean internal team utilized the Anza platform both to save time by automating processes and create required regulatory transparency to develop self generation.

Their previous reliance on manual data collection frequently led to outdated pricing and technical specs and unnecessary risk. The team struggled to manage multiple supplier inquiries in addition to several internal teams, with time-consuming follow-ups frequently delaying critical project decisions.

By automating their BESS modeling and product evaluation with the Anza platform, our client significantly reduced timelines, gaining greater confidence in their financial models and enhanced scalability without needing to expand their team. With immediate access to our comprehensive catalog of battery storage manufacturer data and standardized third-party verified pricing and technical specifications, the client improved their supplier evaluation. They gained confidence that their selections would meet project parameters, risk, and technical criteria and accelerated their project viability assessments, all while reducing administrative overhead. 

Eliminating manual data collection & battery sizing

A behind-the-meter (BTM) developer specializing in battery storage and demand response solutions modernized its operations with the Anza platform, saving three weeks per project and eliminating manual data collection & battery sizing.

Our client relied on outdated, manual processes, often resulting in imprecise pricing, capacity estimates, and long, drawn-out workflows. After spending weeks on OEM outreach with little response, they realized their lack of accurate and current market data greatly hindered their economic modeling, limiting their ability to leverage diverse revenue streams fully.

By utilizing the Anza platform, they transformed their entire process, changing cumbersome, manual tasks into rapid data-driven workflows. Not only did this accelerate their operations, but it also equipped them with more accurate modeling and a larger supplier pool to improve proposals and win more business—a win-win in a competitive energy storage market.

Don’t depend on manual processes, time-consuming third parties, or quickly outdated data anymore. Rapidly understand project viability and optimize projects with Anza’s vetted, on-demand energy storage pricing and product data.
