SwarmBESS: The autonomous, chemistry-agnostic battery system

\n

From batteries to a self-managing economic agent that minimizes LCOS while maximizing grid value.

\n

Visualization: The Swarm

\n

A collective of diverse battery modules forming one intelligent resource. Each dot represents a module with unique characteristics. Watch how they self-organize to meet grid demands. Click a node to inspect its \"Digital Passport\".

Problem: The Brittleness of a Renewable Grid

\n

Renewables are intermittent; grids need second-by-second balancing without intrinsic storage.
Today’s BESS are rigid: single-chemistry or static hybrids can’t adapt to volatile markets and asset aging.
Result: curtailment, underutilized assets, higher LCOS, and missed revenue.

\n

Status Quo Isn’t Enough

\n

Gen 1: Monolithic BESS

\n

Optimized for one dimension (e.g., high power OR long duration), compromising all others. Inflexible and risky.

\n

Gen 2: Static Hybrid BESS

\n

An improvement, but still centrally controlled. Asset mix is fixed at design time and cannot adapt to new technologies or aging.

\n

The Gaps

\n

No chemistry-agnostic hot-swapping, no peer-to-peer resilience, and no internal economics to protect lifetime asset value.

\n

Solution: The SwarmBESS

\n

A self-organizing ecosystem of heterogeneous assets acting as one autonomous market participant.

\n

Digital Passport

Characteristics-first abstraction. Manage assets by what they can do, not what they are made of.

\n

Decentralized Control

A peer-to-peer fabric for resilience. No single point of failure and seamless hot-swapping.

\n

Autonomous Market

Internal economic dispatch. Modules bid to perform tasks, ensuring the lowest-cost coalition always wins.

\n

Pillar III: Autonomous Economic Dispatch

\n

Grid tasks are broadcast to the swarm. Each module then calculates a bid using a multi-objective cost function that considers its suitability, state of health (SOH), and marginal degradation cost. The lowest-cost coalition of modules wins the task.

Why It Wins (Value Proposition)

\n

More Revenue

Smarter stacking across frequency, ramping, arbitrage, and clipping capture.

\n

Longer Life

Degradation-aware dispatch preserves high-value assets for the right jobs, lowering LCOS.

\n

Higher Availability

Self-healing, hot-swappable fleet with no master controller vulnerable to failure.

\n

Future-Proof

Onboard any new storage technology via its passport without redesigning the system.
