Alive Capital from Bucharest agreed with Vienna-based enspired to offer a pioneering technology-based solution for the optimization of battery energy storage systems in Romania.
Alive Capital is specialized in renewable energy management, aggregation solutions, forecasting, dispatching and portfolio optimization, while enspired is an AI-powered optimizer of battery energy storage systems (BESS).
The two companies will offer a pioneering technology-based solution to transform how co-located and standalone BESS assets are optimized in Romania’s energy markets while accelerating the energy transition by integrating more renewables into the grid, enspired said.
Enspired has already been contracted to optimize one of the largest standalone battery assets in SEE
The joint offering enables asset owners to simultaneously participate across multiple energy markets and increase revenues generated by BESS assets through automated trading and advanced cross-market optimization strategies, according to the update.
As part of this joint offer, enspired has already been contracted to optimize one of the largest standalone battery assets in Southeastern Europe, of 202 MW and 404 MWh.
As of May 2026, BESS within the Romanian national energy system has reached 600 MW in installed power, with storage capacity of 1.2 GWh, while grid connection contracts already signed point to a pipeline of approximately 9 GW in addition.
Billi: Energy storage is no longer a supplementary asset
According to Alive Capital founder and CEO Giacomo Billi, energy storage is no longer a supplementary asset – it is becoming the backbone of a flexible, resilient energy system.
Partnering with enspired means the company now combines its decade-long expertise with Europe’s most advanced AI-powered BESS optimization platform, which has been tried and tested across multiple markets, Billi stressed.
Mayerhofer: Alive Capital matches Alive Capital’s first-mover DNA
Jürgen Mayerhofer, CEO & Co-Founder of enspired, pointed out that Alive Capital matches his company’s first-mover DNA while offering deep local expertise.
By adding enspired’s technology and years of valuable hands-on experience in managing live assets across Europe, this partnership provides the operational credibility to translate advanced technology into real-world performance for asset owners in the region, Mayerhofer added.
Alive operates over 1.5 GW across more than 200 renewables assets, while enspired manages a flexibility portfolio of over 6 GW, with nearly 1 GW of BESS.
