LehmanSoft Japan Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; hereinafter "LehmanSoft Japan") has released "Grid-Scale Battery Storage Profitability Simulation," a web application that allows for easy online estimation of the profitability of grid-scale battery storage projects.

With this application, users can check the approximate profitability of a grid-scale battery storage business by entering basic conditions such as area, receiving voltage, PCS output, battery capacity, initial investment, and start month of participation.

Furthermore, for companies desiring more detailed analysis, LehmanSoft Japan is now accepting demonstrations of the detailed version and individual simulation consultations, which include 20 years of monthly cash flow, monthly net profit/cumulative balance, revenue/cost structure, monthly heatmap, and waterfall analysis.

Background of Release With the expansion of renewable energy introduction, attention to grid-scale battery storage as a power supply-demand adjustment capability is increasing in Japan. As variable renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power increase, battery storage is expected to play a crucial role in stable power supply, supply-demand adjustment, market trading, and advanced utilization of renewable energy. On the other hand, the profitability of grid-scale battery storage projects depends on multiple factors such as installation area, battery capacity, PCS output, receiving voltage, initial investment, operation start time, market prices, trends in the supply-demand adjustment market, and operating costs.

Therefore, for companies and investors considering market entry, it is a major challenge to confirm at an early stage whether "this project is worth considering for investment," "under what conditions profitability can be expected," and "can business viability be grasped approximately before creating a detailed revenue and expenditure model."

To solve these challenges in the early stages of consideration, LehmanSoft Japan has developed a simulation application that allows for quick confirmation of the profitability of grid-scale battery storage projects by simply entering basic conditions.

Estimate approximate profitability of battery storage projects by simply entering basic conditions With this application, users can confirm the information necessary for initial consideration of business profitability by entering the basic conditions of their envisioned battery storage project.

Key input items are as follows:

- Area - Receiving voltage - PCS output - Battery capacity - Initial investment - Start month of participation

The entered parameters are reflected in the annual summary and detailed analysis, allowing users to check simulation results tailored to the conditions of each project. This makes it possible to proceed with the initial consideration of battery storage projects, which traditionally required individual organization of market data and Excel models, in a shorter time.

Detailed version supports 20 years of monthly cash flow analysis While the public version allows for simple trial calculations, if you desire a more detailed profitability assessment, you can contact LehmanSoft Japan for a demonstration of the detailed version and individual simulation guidance.

The detailed version provides four analysis tabs: "Summary," "Cash Flow," "Structure Analysis," and "Monthly Details," in addition to monthly granular revenue and expenditure details not displayed in the annual summary.

Furthermore, 240 months, or 20 years, of monthly net profit and cumulative balance can be visualized over time along with revenue and cost structures. A monthly heatmap allows for identification of high-profit and low-profit months, and waterfall analysis allows for confirmation of the breakdown of revenue sources and expense items by fiscal year.

Monthly data can be listed for the latest 12 months, by fiscal year, and for the entire period, and supports CSV export and Excel integration.

Individual consultations allow for detailed simulations based on the conditions of your own projects In addition to the approximate results that can be confirmed with the public version simulation, LehmanSoft Japan accepts detailed individual simulation consultations based on the project conditions of each company.

In individual consultations, business viability can be confirmed in a more practical manner based on the assumed area, battery capacity, PCS output, receiving voltage, initial investment, operation start time, market assumptions, and revenue structure.

Specifically, the following consultations are possible:

- Detailed simulation based on the conditions of your own project - Confirmation of 20-year cash flow - Confirmation of monthly net profit and cumulative balance - Structural analysis by revenue source and expense item - Profitability comparison by area and capacity - Numerical confirmation before internal approval and investment consideration document creation - Premise organization for business planning and revenue and expenditure model creation - Data analysis and system introduction consultation regarding battery storage business

After confirming the approximate profitability with the public version, more detailed analysis is available.
