In a significant move for the renewable energy sector, RRC Companies, a leading full-scope engineering firm, has entered into an exclusive strategic partnership with BattGenie, a battery software company known for its AI-enhanced, physics-based modeling and battery management platform. The alliance aims to transform the utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) market through the integration of advanced predictive analytics and robust engineering capabilities.
The partnership enables RRC to further support energy owners and developers with innovative and intelligent battery storage infrastructure. For BattGenie, the collaboration offers access to RRC’s extensive experience in utility-scale energy deployment, solidifying its role in large-scale energy markets.
“We know the product; RRC knows the market,” said Manan Pathak, CEO and Co-founder of BattGenie. “This partnership bridges innovation with execution. We’re excited to align with a company that has deep expertise in utility-scale energy storage systems and a shared mission to maximize the value of BESS assets.”
At the heart of the collaboration is BattStudio, BattGenie’s unified platform, which integrates four advanced modules:
- BattSaaS (simulation),
- BattMaaS (modeling)
- BattDaaS (data analytics)
- BattPaaS (performance management)
This platform delivers accurate state estimation, dynamic charge/discharge control, and predictive analytics—technologies that have been shown to double battery life and significantly reduce charging time. The platform complements RRC’s engineering and SCADA capabilities, notably its proprietary RIVR™ platform, by allowing seamless integration of battery performance insights from project design through to operations.
Once integrated with RIVR, BattStudio will offer cloud-based predictive analytics and real-time energy management, creating a powerful and scalable solution for enhancing BESS operations.
Through this partnership, RRC and BattGenie will offer:
- Real-time battery behavior modeling
- Predictive insights on safety, maintenance, and efficiency
- Extended battery life
- Enhanced safety
- Reduced charging time
- Dynamic EMS/SCADA optimization
- Revenue generation from energy arbitrage, frequency regulation, and peak shaving
- Lower CAPEX through reduced buffer requirements
- Cell/pack model parameter estimation
“Advanced software, when paired with the right engineering partner, unlocks real performance gains in the field,” said Bill Bong, President and Co-founder of RRC Companies. “This partnership combines BattGenie’s deep product intelligence with our engineering and field expertise to deliver storage systems that exceed expectations.”
Already supporting clients in boosting the value of their BESS assets, RRC and BattGenie plan to scale their joint offering using BattStudio and RIVR to help organizations maximize returns on energy storage investments and support the ongoing transition to a more sustainable energy future.
