Gresham House Energy Storage Fund (GRID) invests in utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) in Great Britain and Ireland. The company seeks to capitalise on the growing intraday imbalances in electricity supply and demand caused by the UK and Ireland’s ever-increasing reliance on renewable energy, by accessing multiple revenue sources available in the power market. GRID targets an NAV total return of 8.0% + per annum and it has significantly overshot this target since its inception in November 2018, having delivered an NAV total return of 84.1% and a share price total return of 100.5%, compared to an 11.8% rise in the broad UK market in the period to end-September 2022. According to Edison Group, GRID pays an attractive dividend, which is set to rise in line with revenues.
