  • Storage is no longer an “add-on,” it’s a market of its own. Yet for all its importance, battery energy storage system (BESS) pricing has remained one of clean energy’s biggest blind spots. Developers and buyers alike have been flying without instruments. That’s why we built MarketPulse Storage: a tool that brings transparency to real storage tolling prices across CAISO, ERCOT, MISO, SPP, and soon, Europe. It’s the same trusted MarketPulse foundation, now expanded to storage. Because a maturing market needs mature data.

  • Energy storage has moved from “nice-to-have” to non-negotiable. Unprecedented load growth - driven by electrification, AI, and data centres - is accelerating the need for reliable capacity and flexible energy assets. Our Q3 2025 North America "Storage Pricing Market Transparency Report" provides a first-hand view into how the storage market is evolving, with insights drawn from 60+ real price offers across tolling, TBx, and RA settlement structures. 📊 Discover how: – Battery duration, geography, and development stage impact pricing – Quarter-over-quarter price movements – 2-hour vs. 4-hour batteries are valued across regions Access the full analysis and understand how energy storage pricing is shaping today’s procurement strategies. 🔗 Read more: https://lnkd.in/g3MX2KrN

  • Today marks a “first-of-its-kind” milestone for clean energy markets. LevelTen Energy and our GC Trading Alliance partners successfully held the first-ever spot auction for granular certificates (GCs) in PJM. This pilot marks the launch of the Granular Certificate Marketplace (GCM), the first central platform for trading hourly clean energy attributes. With hourly price signals and real-time trading, the GCM helps buyers and sellers identify where carbon-free energy is most valuable and send demand signals that accelerate investment in the technologies needed to fill those critical gaps. This is just the start. Together with our partners, we’re building the foundation for a smarter, more transparent market that supports high-integrity, scalable carbon-free energy procurement. Read more about what this milestone means for the future of clean energy 👇

    Today LevelTen Energy, the GC Trading Alliance, and Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) conducted the first-ever spot auction for granular certificates (GCs) in PJM. For the first time, buyers and sellers can access hourly price signals for carbon-free energy, enabling them to respond to demand where it is most needed and providing a clearer path for developers to invest. Thanks to everyone for their work in making this happen. This milestone is more than just a technical advancement; it offers a glimpse into the future of clean energy markets. We envision a future with utility-shaped tariffs, PPAs denominated in GCs, and integrated energy storage solutions, all working together to deliver clean power when and where it is needed. How could GCs create new opportunities for your organization to meet climate goals in a cost-effective manner?

  • The GHG Protocol public consultation on Scope 2 guidance is officially open. Whether your organization is pursuing an emissionality-based energy strategy, a 24/7 carbon-free approach, or another path altogether, this is a critical moment to make your voice heard. While there’s been a lot of industry debate, we all share an underlying goal: bringing more carbon-free energy to the grid. At LevelTen, we support all strategies that improve the integrity, impact, and transparency of clean energy claims. In fact, later today, we’ll announce a major step in advancing progress - we’re hosting the first granular certificates auction of its kind in the US, which will unlock hourly price signals and actionable data for buyers, developers, and the entire ecosystem. Stay tuned. 🗳 In the meantime, we encourage everyone to take part and submit your feedback to the GHG Protocol consultation; a carbon-free grid will only happen if we build it together. https://lnkd.in/dRMAd8ef

  • ⚡ The fastest path from offer to deal starts with better data. ⚡ For clean energy developers, RfP success hinges on the critical step of getting shortlisted — and getting there takes more than intuition. With LevelTen Energy’s MarketPulse, developers gain daily insights into real PPA price offers, helping shape strategies that move projects from submission to signed. By turning market complexity into clarity, MarketPulse helps developers close deals faster and helps buyers find the right projects sooner.

  • LevelTen Energy’s Q3 2025 PPA Price Index (North America) shows that both solar and wind prices are on the rise again — but the story behind those numbers is more complex than “tax credits are going away.” This quarter revealed four key signals shaping renewable power procurement: 1) Solar prices continue climbing - up 4x higher this quarter than last, but not for the reasons you think. 2) Developers focus on navigating the tangle of new tariffs, probes, and FEOC rules impacting real-time project economics. 3) The race to 2026 tax credit safe harboring continues full steam ahead. 4) PPA contracts are getting smarter, not just more expensive, with more flexibility and indexation built in. The takeaway: Clean energy remains the most affordable, scalable path forward but the cost of waiting is rising. We unpack each of these findings and explore how they are reshaping the market in our latest quarterly PPA Price Index.

  • The data gap in storage just closed thanks to MarketPulse Storageᵝ, the industry’s first transparent pricing intelligence tool for battery storage tolling offers. Energy storage has become a cornerstone of the clean energy transition but until now, reliable market data has lagged behind. MarketPulse Storageᵝ changes that, offering hundreds of real, standardized tolling price points from major U.S. markets, with European data coming soon. For developers and buyers alike, this new visibility means better benchmarking, smarter offers, and more confident procurement decisions. 🔗 Explore the beta: https://lnkd.in/gdRMBJTs

  • Immediately after OBBBA passed, we identified the top most attractive projects best positioned to deliver value under the new tax credit rules. The goal: give buyers a clear view of the opportunities most worth pursuing. Less than two months later, the data tells us everything: ⚡ 1 in 5 of those projects are already under exclusivity. ⚡ Prices for select top projects have climbed ~5% in ERCOT and ~7% in MISO. ⚡ Competition is driving more developer-favorable contract terms. To reflect this acceleration, we’ve curated a new list of the most attractive projects available today. For buyers, this means two things: speed is critical, and procurement strategies must adapt to secure value before windows close. We’ll keep refreshing this list so the community has a current view of where the best opportunities remain. 🔗 See the updated list and analysis: https://lnkd.in/gngijs8r

  • 1 in 5 projects from July’s Top Projects list has already gone under exclusivity — in less than 60 days. That’s the fastest pace we’ve ever tracked. It’s a clear signal of two things: 🔹 Tax-credit-eligible projects are being prioritized and secured faster than ever. 🔹 Traditional procurement timelines no longer align with market reality. For buyers and developers alike, the question is the same: how do we adapt procurement strategies to match a market that’s moving in weeks, not months? We’ve pulled together the latest data and signals here: https://lnkd.in/gngijs8r
