The living index — GB BESS revenue, month by month
Provisional — figures revise at settlement runs
Every figure on this page is computed on initial-settlement data on basis
published-2026Q2 and revises at later settlement runs;
the settled quarterly report is the record.
What this is: the CE GB BESS Index between quarterly reports — trailing-30-day
and calendar-month revenue per MW for the behaviour-gated GB battery fleet, per stream and per
duration class, computed by the published quarterly conventions on open Elexon & NESO records.
What it is not: not the settled record (the quarterly report is), not a forecast and not an
appraisal — to model a site forward, open the New Site appraisal in the app.

Coverage
Settled vs provisional: the settled quarterly report is
the record — this series is computed on initial-settlement data and revises at later settlement
runs. Provisional points are never restated silently: each refresh re-emits the full series with
its computation date, and the settled quarterly report
supersedes this page.
