OptiGrid to optimise Vena Energy’s 408MW Bellambi Heights BESS in Australia

SolarNews Brief

Vena Energy has selected OptiGrid to optimise trading for the 408 MW Bellambi Heights battery energy storage system in Australia. The agreement points to the growing value of software-led dispatch and market participation as large batteries move from construction pipelines into merchant and contracted revenue models.

The Bellambi Heights BESS is a 408 MW project in Australia, where battery operators increasingly rely on optimisation platforms to manage wholesale trading, grid services, and shifting price signals. OptiGrid’s role is focused on improving commercial performance rather than supplying hardware, underlining how operating strategy is becoming as important as installed capacity. For developers, the project shows that bankable storage revenue depends on fast market response and disciplined dispatch across multiple services.
