Stay ahead with proactive augmentation planning and lifetime optimization.
Plan smarter with accurate lifetime forecasts and strategies to optimize energy storage, reduce disruptions, and protect your long-term ROI.
Batteries age, markets accelerate. Without accurate life curves and a timed augmentation plan, usable capacity slips and revenues leak away. Strategic augmentation blends health forecasting, cost curves, and evolving chemistries to add the right modules at the right time—keeping assets above contract thresholds while squeezing every megawatt-hour of value from the investment.
Augmentation services we offer.
Predict future needs with confidence
Avoid unexpected performance drops with forecasting based on real-world usage data that predicts when and where your systems will need augmentation—up to two years in advance. This gives you the visibility to plan upgrades early, avoid surprises, and maintain optimal performance.
Maximize usable energy before expanding
Before investing in new containers, our analytics help ensure you’re not leaving stranded energy on the table. We identify recoverable capacity to help you optimize energy reserves and reduce the need for costly hardware expansions.
Take control of battery lifecycles
Instead of reacting to failures, our system-level insights and long-horizon planning give you a structured view of battery health. You can align augmentation strategies with maintenance schedules and investment cycles—reducing downtime and safeguarding long-term value.
Turning accelerated aging into extra capacity.
Challenge
ACCURE’s health tracking showed the cells in a 100+ MWh BESS had lost ≈ 6 % more capacity than the supplier’s warranty allowed within the first two years. The original augmentation plan (adding 1.8 MWh in year 2) would not keep the plant above its required usable-capacity threshold, risking lost revenue and warranty disputes.
ACCURE insights
By comparing the real-life State-of-Health curve with the contractual warranty line, we quantified the shortfall and calculated how much additional energy was needed to stay compliant until the next scheduled augmentation.
Outcome
Using ACCURE’s evidence, the operator successfully claimed an extra 1.45 MWh of warranty-funded augmentation, raising the year-2 top-up from 1.8 MWh to 3.3 MWh. The additional capacity (valued at ≈ $217k) secures site performance, preserves revenue, and keeps the supplier, not the operator, responsible for the accelerated ageing.
ACCURE’s independent experts guide you through the entire battery journey—from procurement to day-to-day operation and beyond. Our data-driven software and services cut risk, raise performance, and protect your investment. Armed with insights from 15 GWh of live assets spanning every major vendor, region, and use case, we meet you where you are and move your program forward with confidence. Explore the stages below to see how we add value at every milestone of the battery lifecycle.
How we help companies with augmentation planning.
We forecast site-level battery augmentation needs up to two years in advance by analyzing historical and current usage patterns. These predictive insights empower facility operators to plan cost-efficient expansions or replacements. This proactive approach ensures minimal disruptions, maximizes return on investment, and extends the operational lifespan of your energy storage systems.
