Renewance, a U.S. leader in battery lifecycle services, and GreenPowerMonitor (GPM), a DNV company renowned for its renewable asset monitoring capabilities, have announced a strategic partnership aimed at advancing battery energy storage system (BESS) management across North America. The collaboration will integrate energy systems controls with lifecycle services to enhance the longevity, regulatory compliance, and overall value of BESS assets.
The announcement comes at a critical juncture in the U.S. energy transition, as the grid rapidly incorporates standalone energy storage and hybridizes existing photovoltaic (PV) installations. Asset owners are facing mounting challenges in managing system complexity, extending asset life, and adhering to evolving recycling and compliance standards.
The partnership seeks to close the gap between real-time asset performance data and actionable field services. “Renewance has commissioned and serviced over 20 GWh battery systems and also decommissioned over 100 MWh of battery systems. This collaboration represents the next evolution in battery stewardship,” said Jamal Burki, CEO at Renewance. “By linking GPM’s powerful monitoring capabilities with our lifecycle services, we’re not simply collecting data – we’re proactively acting on it to drive safer, more sustainable outcomes for our customers and the planet.”
As part of the agreement, GPM’s Energy Management System (EMS) will be integrated with RenewanceConnect’s monitoring and service infrastructure to support grid code compliance and enhance asset performance. The combined platform will serve utility-scale and commercial and industrial storage operators with an end-to-end solution that flags optimization opportunities and activates services across the asset lifecycle—from routine maintenance to repurposing and recycling.
The initiative supports circular economy principles outlined by the U.S. Department of Energy and aligns with state-level strategies to embed sustainability in energy infrastructure. It also opens the door to future expansion across other markets, asset types, and regulatory regimes, setting the foundation for intelligent, closed-loop energy asset management.
“This collaboration sets an example and adds an important step toward a more intelligent and efficient energy storage future in North America,” said Juan Carlos Arévalo, CEO at GreenPowerMonitor.
Although the partnership is open and non-exclusive, it is among the first to combine the capabilities of a battery lifecycle services firm with a renewable energy asset management platform. The integration targets a critical gap in asset management by connecting performance data directly with field-based lifecycle actions—supporting smarter asset stewardship and improved ESG outcomes.
Mr. Arévalo further noted, “At GPM, we believe that actionable data is key to unlocking the full potential of energy storage systems. This initiative to combine monitoring and lifecycle services – bridges performance insights and field action to optimize the value of customers’ battery systems and brings us a smarter way to manage storage.”
