Fox ESS will hold, this Thursday (12), at 19 pm, another edition of the Fox ESS Conference, focusing on the impacts of changes in the electricity sector and commercial opportunities for the hybrid battery systems market.

Among the main topics will be the proposal of ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency) for the Fixed-Time Tariff, which may modify consumers' relationship with electricity use and open new opportunities for integrators already operating or intending to enter the energy storage segment.

The live stream will be broadcast for free on the manufacturer's channel. YouTube and through its official profile on Instagram with the participation of Bruno Kikumoto and Ericka Araújo, from Canal SolarMatheus Bueno, Fernando Domingos and André Nogueira, from Fox ESS, in addition to guest integrators.

According to the manufacturer, the goal is to discuss how changes in the electricity sector can influence the demand for energy storage and create business opportunities for professionals working in the photovoltaic market.

A shift in the market and new challenges for integrators.

The "Tarifa Hora Certa" (Specific Hourly Rate) proposes to expand the differentiation of electricity prices throughout the day, encouraging consumers to shift part of their consumption to periods when energy is cheaper.

If implemented, this approach could stimulate changes in consumption habits and increase interest in technologies that allow for greater control over electricity use.

In this scenario, hybrid battery systems may gain relevance by enabling energy storage for use during peak tariff hours. However, the economic viability of this application will depend on established regulations, consumption patterns, and equipment costs.

For Fox ESS, the prospect of tariff changes also brings challenges to integrators, who will need to understand the impacts on different consumer profiles and identify situations in which storage can represent a viable alternative.

During the broadcast, participants will discuss these possibilities, as well as business strategies for professionals who wish to enter the battery market, as well as for those who already offer these solutions and seek to expand their sales.

In addition to the "Tarifa Hora Certa" (a specific tariff for electricity billing), the meeting will address other factors that have been driving the debate on energy storage, such as power outages, limitations on injecting surplus energy into the grid, and the increasing electrification of homes and businesses.

Among the applications planned for discussion is the use of batteries to keep essential loads running during blackouts, as well as the control of energy export in projects facing connectivity restrictions, in accordance with technical and regulatory requirements.

The expansion of electric vehicles, air conditioning equipment, and other loads will also be on the agenda, given the changes these technologies are causing in consumption patterns and the need for greater energy management.

According to Fox ESS, this scenario may encourage integrators to diversify their portfolios and develop commercial proposals that consider, in addition to savings on electricity bills, continuity of supply and control of consumption.

Business challenges for the battery market

Data from the SED Greener survey, presented by Fox ESS at Canal Conecta's findings indicate that 86% of the integrators surveyed offered hybrid systems, while only 38% had made at least one sale with a battery in the first half of 2026.

According to the company's assessment, the difference between the supply of these technologies and the actual sales highlights the importance of technical and commercial training to expand the presence of energy storage in the photovoltaic market.

The Fox ESS Journey is a technical and commercial training program aimed at professionals who want to advance in the solar energy market and incorporate new technologies into their businesses.

After an initial phase dedicated to single-phase hybrid inverters, the program moves on to content related to three-phase hybrid systems.

The training is organized into six themes: Market and Sales; Portfolio and Sizing; Installation; Configurations; Monitoring; and Troubleshooting, dedicated to identifying and resolving problems.

Participants have access to live classes, handouts, support materials, certificates of participation, and an exclusive WhatsApp group where engineers and specialists from the manufacturer answer technical questions.

Among the equipment used as a reference is the Fox ESS H3 Pro three-phase hybrid inverter, available in versions from 15 kW to 30 kW. The content also includes applications with batteries from the manufacturer's portfolio, such as the EP6 and EP12 models, considering the compatibility and sizing requirements of each project.

In this edition, the focus will be on the commercial impacts of changes in the Brazilian electricity market, especially the perspective of the "Tarifa Hora Certa" (Specific Hourly Rate), and on how integrators can prepare to meet the new needs of consumers with hybrid and battery systems.
