Flexibility Pays: Battery revenues in April 2026
April 2026 combined surging negative prices, growing midday solar oversupply, and elevated market volatility into some of the strongest battery trading opportunities seen so far this year. Lennard Wilkening, CEO and co-founder of suena energy, explains why increasingly persistent oversupply is reshaping not just battery trading strategies but also the growing importance of battery storage in a renewable-dominated power system.
Batteries: The game has changed – and it’s not what you think
A single benchmark no longer exists. In some cases, charging speed is what matters; in others, it is energy density, and in still others, cost and scalability. In other words, the battery is ceasing to be a simple component. It is becoming the transversal energy infrastructure of the next industrial cycle. And those who can control not only the technology but also production, integration, and the grid will have an advantage that will be difficult to recover.
Volatility returns: Battery revenues in March 2026
March saw a sharp rebound in battery revenues in Germany. While average price levels increased only moderately, shifting dynamics between solar-driven price troughs and fossil-driven peaks created a more favourable trading environment. Lennard Wilkening, CEO and co-founder of suena energy, analyses what defined the month and why cross-market strategies proved particularly effective.
