Stockholm Exergi Optimises BESS Trading in All Physical Power Markets

Maximising the value of Battery Storage assets requires intelligent and dynamic allocation across all marketplaces; Hansen Trade Multi-Market Optimisation enables Stockholm Exergi to identify and capitalise on opportunities automatically.


March 4th, 2025
– Hansen Technologies (ASX:HSN), a global provider of software and services to the energy, utilities, communications, and media industries, is pleased to announce that Swedish utility company Stockholm Exergi is expanding its use of Hansen Trade. Stockholm Exergi will leverage the platform’s seamless, modular architecture to implement Hansen Trade’s newest trading capability, Multi-Market Optimisation.

Hansen Trade Multi-Market Optimisation maximises trading potential and capacity utilisation of all asset types in all physical trading marketplaces. When market prices are getting increasingly volatile, there is no single market that is always optimal. Instead, capacity needs to be allocated dynamically between different marketplaces. Hansen Trade Multi-Market Optimisation enables Stockholm Exergi to optimise BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems) assets in all marketplaces.

Erik Forsén, Product Owner for Ancillary Services at Stockholm Exergi, commented: “After the smooth initial implementation of Hansen Trade solutions earlier this year, it was a logical decision for us to continue to advanced asset optimisation together with Hansen. The Swedish BESS market is flourishing, driven by the transition to renewables and the demand for grid stability; Stockholm Exergi must play a leading role in achieving the country’s ambitious target of being 100 per cent renewables-based by 2040. Hansen Trade has fully satisfied our expectations, and we look forward to using it to optimise our BESS assets.”

David Castree, President for Energy & Utilities at Hansen, commented: “We are delighted to expand our successful partnership with Stockholm Exergi. Sweden is making significant investments in BESS solutions to support the integration of renewable energy sources like wind and solar, solidifying its reputation as a hub for energy innovation. However, the key to success is the ability to maximise the performance of these investments, both technically and financially. Hansen Trade delivers the tools operators need to be successful.”

Part of the Hansen Suite for Energy & Utilities, Hansen Trade is a fully modular, Cloud-native software platform that enables trading organisations to transform their business performance, leveraging a next-generation analytics-driven logic engine to automate, optimise, and maximise all asset classes in the short-term wholesale physical power trading and auction marketplaces, as well as for ancillary services. Extensive visualisation tools promote informed decision-making that enhances trade-balance position management, and a no-code, user-friendly business-centric interface streamlines the creation of unique strategies specifically tuned for individual assets or asset groups. Accelerated time-to-market and continuous market and regulatory compliance make Hansen Trade the complete trading solution. For more details, visit the Hansen Trade product page.
