Market Innovation: terralayr’s “Enhanced Trading of Flexibility - ETF” - Multiple Optimizers Trade in Parallel on a Single BESS Asset
BESS Platform LAYR unites Entrix, suena energy and The Mobility House Energy to create an improved Risk-Return Profile for Asset Owners.
The commercialization model “Enhanced Trading of Flexibility - ETF” creates the world's first, risk-adjusted portfolio-effect for storage operators. This model unites the leading optimizers Entrix, suena energy and The Mobility House Energy to simultaneously trade on the same battery storage assets - from intraday markets to ancillary services.
Through LAYR, the asset's capacity is virtualized and can be reallocated between optimizers at any time with a single click. This approach drives market efficiency, lowers revenue volatility, and creates a more stable risk-return profile for operators. An additional benefit are so called "netting-off effects”, which regularly occur when optimizers’ dispatch schedules offset each other, saving battery cycles and reducing degradation.
The platform bundles all optimizer dispatch and ancillary service signals, and subsequently allocates them to the physical asset while guaranteeing adherence to all technical restrictions and manufacturer specifications. This enables a multi-optimizer portfolio on the same asset, which reduces risk and makes the performance of individual assets transparently comparable.
Diversification Strategy
Enhanced Trading of Flexibility - ETF”: Just as an ETF bundles a diversified portfolio to spread the risks of individual stocks, our multi-optimizer model enables the diversification of trading strategies in the power market. Instead of exclusive commercialization through one provider, asset owners can now combine optimization approaches.
For asset owners, this means:
- An improved risk-return profile through the parallel use of complementary trading strategies (intraday, ancillary services, arbitrage) from top-tier optimizers.
- Transparent, real-time performance comparisons between optimizers.
- Flexible, one-click capacity allocation without new contracts or switching costs.
- Longer battery asset lifespan due to “netting-off effects” and reduced degradation.
“Our conviction is that asset owners need professional risk management tools. We enable them to manage their commercialization like a portfolio manager in the financial market,” says Philipp Man, Founder and CEO of terralayr. “We are solving what capital providers fear most: the binary risk of betting on a single trading strategy. With our multi-optimizer model, asset owners diversify their merchant risk across the best optimizers. This elimination of performance risk is the next logical step in the professionalization of the European storage market.”
