Germany plans long-duration energy storage auctions for 2025
As mentioned by Lars Stephan''s post, the German government''s definition of ''long-duration'' goes way further than the more typical 8-hour duration commonly associated with the term. The 8-hour discharge threshold has been adopted by governments in the UK, Italy, Ireland and California as each has also moved to begin their first

Longer-duration and wind co-location at Ireland''s first 4-hour BESS
The early BESS projects could underpin the revenue stack using the DS3 and capacity markets, but a quick review of the current state of play shows why Ireland needs storage-specific auctions (specifically targeting longer duration) to support the Irish government''s 2030 targets of 80% of generation from renewable sources.
4-hour duration BESS in Australia''s NEM to be more profitable

However, investments in BESS have lagged significantly, making up less than one-tenth of this capacity. Image: Wood Mackenzie. 4-hour BESS in 2026 to earn an average of AU$263,000/MW
Long duration energy storage: Will BESS beat other technologies?
Up to 20 GW of long-duration storage could be required by 2050 to ensure security of supply, as generation becomes increasingly intermittent. With falling Capex costs and a higher revenue potential, we project a large increase in battery energy storage capacity, driven by 6 and 8 hour systems. This would follow the trend from other markets such as California.
Political uncertainty over tariffs prompts renegotiation

Honing in on the optimal BESS duration
The extended duration enabled the optimizer to capture revenue across multiple market products, increasing total revenue without SOC concerns. And, even without perfect foresight, longer duration gives the operator more "at bats," increasing the likelihood of hitting high priced hours. Strategic Advantages of Longer Duration BESS
