Levelise to unveil new Hub Max battery optimisation and trading system for commercial energy storage at Solar & Storage Live

Written by Negin Hashemi | Sep 21, 2026, 2:34:18 PM
New solution designed to help commercial customers maximise battery storage returns, reduce payback periods and access additional flexibility market revenues.
 
Levelise is set to launch its brand-new Hub Max system for the commercial market at Solar & Storage Live next week.
 
Designed to address the needs of commercial businesses with battery storage and solar PV systems, Hub Max aims to help customers improve their return on investment by intelligently managing energy flows, optimising battery performance and accessing available flexibility markets.
 
The new solution will be unveiled on the Levelise stand, A78, where visitors can meet the team and discover how Hub Max can support the delivery of more commercially viable battery storage projects.
 
Unlocking greater value from commercial battery storage
 
While battery storage offers businesses an opportunity to reduce energy costs and improve energy resilience, the longer return on investment associated with commercial installations can present a challenge for customers and installers.
 
Hub Max has been developed to help address this challenge, combining intelligent battery optimisation with access to grid flexibility and energy trading markets.
 
The system uses AI-driven analysis to understand a business's energy consumption patterns, including how energy is used across different days and time periods. This enables the system to optimise battery charging and discharging, including overnight charging based on predicted energy requirements.
 
By combining site-specific energy management with access to available flexibility markets, Hub Max is designed to help commercial customers maximise the value of their battery investment.
 
Iván Castro, Managing Director at Levelise, said: “The commercial battery storage market presents a significant opportunity, but businesses need solutions that can deliver meaningful financial returns from their investment.
“With Hub Max, we're bringing together intelligent energy optimisation and access to flexibility markets to help our customers unlock more value from their battery storage systems. We're excited to launch the product at Solar & Storage Live and demonstrate how we're supporting installers and commercial businesses in making battery storage work harder for them.”
 
Supporting installers from installation to optimisation
 
Hub Max is designed to be installed alongside commercial battery storage systems by qualified installers, with Levelise's technical team attending site to support commissioning.
 
The system includes on-site commissioning by Levelise, with fully funded options available. It is available through direct installer relationships and wholesale channels, supporting Levelise's established network across the solar PV and energy storage supply chain.
 
The Hub Max launch reflects Levelise's focus on expanding its offering beyond the domestic market and supporting the growing demand for commercial battery storage optimisation.
 
Visitors to Solar & Storage Live can meet the Levelise team at stand A78 to find out more about Hub Max and how it can support their commercial battery storage projects.
