BESS Feasibility Checklist

Planning a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project but not sure where to start?

Before investing time and capital, it is critical to understand whether BESS is technically viable and financially justified for your facility. Our BESS Feasibility Checklist helps you make that assessment quickly and professionally.

Who This Checklist Is For

This checklist is designed for:

• Industrial facilities and manufacturing plants
• Ports, terminals, shipyards and marine operators
• EPC contractors and system integrators
• Energy managers and facility engineers
• Consultants evaluating ESS / BESS projects

If you are dealing with high energy costs, demand charges, grid unreliability, or solar integration, this checklist is for you.

What This Checklist Helps You Evaluate

The BESS Feasibility Checklist covers key technical and commercial aspects, including:

• Electrical load behavior and peak demand patterns
• Electricity tariff structure and demand charges
• Backup power and reliability requirements
• Solar and renewable energy integration potential
• Space, safety, and site constraints
• High ambient temperature and hot-climate considerations
• Business objectives and ROI expectations

It is structured as a 10-point screening tool to quickly identify whether a detailed BESS study is recommended.

Why Use a Feasibility Checklist Before a BESS Project?

Many BESS projects underperform due to poor early-stage planning.

This checklist helps you:

• Avoid oversizing or undersizing the battery system
• Identify strong BESS use cases early
• Improve ROI and payback outcomes
• Reduce technical and commercial risks
• Prepare better inputs for EPCs and consultants

It is the first practical step before feasibility studies, tenders, or vendor discussions.

Designed for Middle East Operating Conditions

This checklist is developed with a strong focus on:

• High ambient temperatures
• Industrial operating environments
• Grid and tariff structures common in the Middle East

It is suitable for facilities operating in GCC and hot-climate regions, where standard ESS assumptions often fail.
