About NovaGrid

Bringing energy value into the next market.

NOVAGRID was founded to maximize the value of grid-scale batteries and distributed energy resources as renewable energy expands and power markets become more sophisticated.

Solar and wind power are essential to decarbonization, yet their output changes with weather and time. The next power system needs mechanisms to store, move, and optimize electricity.

NOVAGRID sees batteries not as standalone equipment, but as platform assets connecting power markets, balancing, local energy, and decarbonized management.

Through JEPX, balancing markets, capacity markets, data analysis, forecasting, and external system integration, we support a society where energy value circulates with greater flexibility.

What we do

We connect customer-owned battery assets to power markets, BG operation, and control planning to support multi-market monetization.

Operating model

Delegating market access, BG operation, and real-time control in one service

Customers keep ownership and development responsibility for the battery. NovaGrid handles BG operation, trading agency, and control planning while organizing access to JEPX, capacity, and balancing markets.
