Will a new energy storage system reduce grid fees?

Hettema said Aurora estimates the two changes combined could reduce grid fees by two-thirds, and with grid fees equal to as much as 60% of revenues for storage, that would be a substantial improvement to the business case. Of course that 15% of the time reduces energy storage operators’ flexibility to monetise their asset.
