Aurora's Grid
Aurora's Grid develops EMMA, battery energy management software designed to account for lithium-ion ageing while coordinating energy applications. The Swiss company's published offering spans local energy optimisation, fleet management and battery sizing simulation. It addresses installations from buildings to larger storage projects, including self-consumption, demand peaks and electricity-market services. [1]
The entries below document published information against the eight assessment criteria. They distinguish stated capabilities from evidence needed for verification. No scores have been assigned.
Demonstrated innovation
EMMA combines electrochemical battery knowledge with forecasting and optimisation. Its battery-sizing tool models lifetime and revenue across service combinations, linking dispatch choices to storage ageing. [1]
Net savings and operational value
The sizing platform models battery lifetime and service revenue to inform investment decisions. Users can compare battery chemistries, capacity and inverter choices before committing to an installation. [1]
Grid capacity and flexibility control
The vendor describes peak shaving, frequency-market services and energy arbitrage. Availability and achievable grid value depend on local markets, connection constraints and the installed equipment. [2]
Interoperability across equipment brands
Aurora's Grid calls its EMS hardware-agnostic and describes the same architecture across several markets. A complete model-level compatibility and protocol matrix was not established from reviewed pages. [2]
Reliability and recovery
Fleet management offers status views and warning or fault notifications. Published information reviewed does not specify offline fallback behaviour, recovery times or a contractual availability commitment. [1]
Cybersecurity and data governance
The fleet platform describes secure remote access and read-only access for end users. Published information reviewed does not specify encryption implementation, data residency or independent security certification. [1]
Installation, operation and user experience
Users can inspect energy flows, history and financial benefits and change operating modes remotely. Commissioning speed is a vendor claim, dependent on the installation. [1] [2]
Support, lifecycle terms and portability
Battery ageing and state-of-health modelling address asset lifetime. Published information reviewed does not specify software support duration, termination arrangements or portability of control settings. [2]
