Maker and integrator of grid-scale battery energy storage systems, a joint venture of Siemens and AES.
Sells complete battery storage systems on fixed-price contracts that take months to deliver, so revenue arrives in lumps as projects are finished, with service and software contracts following. It buys battery cells from Asian suppliers, which makes tariffs and cell prices important, and has been working to source more in the US.
Moat: narrow (scale, installed base, process know-how). Large deployed storage fleet and software give operating-performance credibility that's hard for new entrants to match.
