26 companies sell for two or more battery sites

Who actually sells the fleet's power, how much they run, and what the book earned across the three measured lines in the 364 days to 27 September 2026. Rates are pounds per kilowatt per year across the whole book; the mix behind each rate is on its page.

Largest first; click a heading to sort by it. A battery that re-registered under a new code is counted once, under the code it runs on today, and the money it earned under an earlier code at the same seller is in that seller's book.

The other half of the question, who owns the batteries these companies sell for, is on the owner pages.

Sites that sell for themselves

One registered seller, one site. A large asset often trades through its own company rather than a platform; the twelve largest are here and each site's own page carries its figures.

3.8 GW of documented contracts that the register does not name

Every line here is identified: the site, the party, the kind of arrangement and the document it comes from. What is missing is the register's confirmation, for one of three reasons, and the three must not be added together.

Behind a vehicle: 1,361 MW

The battery is registered, the register names a special purpose vehicle as the seller, and the contract announcement names the company that actually optimises it.

No registration: 452 MW

Tolls and optimisation agreements on batteries that have no registration of their own, or that trade inside another company's identity. These are the contracts behind the unseen fleet.

Not yet built: 1,987 MW

Signed for batteries still being built. Forward book, not a gap in the register: each will appear under a seller name when it registers, and this ledger will say whether that name matches the document.

Where the owner sells it and the register agrees: 151 MW

One site, sold by the company that owns it, with the arrangement documented. Not in the figure above, because the register does name the party.

Wholesale trading income is invisible for everyone on this page, in both directions: nothing here nets charging costs either. Methods
