For weeks I've been writing about BESS-as-a-Service. Today I'll tell you why. If you've followed my last few posts, you know the thesis: The battery is a commodity. The structure is the product. Industrial sites don't want to own energy assets — they want outcomes. The BTM layer is the bankable floor, the FTM layer is the upside. Nobody buys. Everybody subscribes. I wasn't writing theory. I was describing what we've already been building — and proving in the field. Today we launch Equora. We finance, build, and operate intelligent battery systems for industrial and commercial sites. Zero upfront investment. The client shares the savings. Full benefit, zero complexity. This isn't a concept deck. The model is live, the structure is field-approved, and we're deploying: → Save without investing — we carry the capex and the financial and technical risk. The client keeps capital for their core business. → The full stack, not just peak shaving — peak shaving, load shifting, trading, and grid services on one asset, maximising the existing grid connection. → Energy meets AI — round-the-clock optimisation that adapts to the market automatically. → One partner for everything — single point of contact across hardware, financing, and market access. We strip the project risk, the client gets the outcome. Built by operators, not consultants. A team that has transacted, financed, and operated these assets — not just modelled them on a slide. HQ in Zug, operations in Berlin, active across CH, DE, PL, Nordics, Benelux, and AT. Run an industrial site with a meaningful electricity bill? Tell us about it, and we'll tell you what it's worth. First-pass revenue model, no NDA required. The discussion in these comments over the past weeks made one thing clear: the market is ready. Let's build. 🔗 equora.energy Marc Preusche Thomas W.
