Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners has acquired Habitat Energy, an optimization and trading platform for grid-scale battery storage in the United Kingdom.
Habitat Energy has developed advanced machine learning and algorithmic capabilities to optimize the strategic and financial value of battery storage assets within deregulated power markets, both standalone and colocated with renewables. The company has been ranked by independent market analysts as a top-performing optimizer within the U.K. battery storage sector.
Quinbrook said it plans to help Habitat further develop its technology suite and advanced machine learning capabilities, continuing its expansion into Australia as well as the United States. Habitat will be deployed to optimize battery storage assets within the Quinbrook portfolio, while continuing to offer its services independently to new and existing clients around the world.
