Ko Prompts for Beginners

​Ko is your intelligent coworker for every energy asset decision. Across market discovery, deal underwriting, and asset operations, Ko works alongside you, citing every answer back to the knowledge built by Modo Energy's power market experts.

This guide covers five things Ko helps you do, with example prompts to try. You don't need to phrase anything perfectly. Ask in plain language, then follow up to go deeper.

Turn your revenue numbers into reasons

Ko compares your asset to the benchmark and breaks the gap down by revenue stream, time of day, and season. You find out what actually made the difference, not just that there was one.

Try asking Ko:

"Which were the top 5 batteries in ERCOT last month, and what drove the leader's revenue?"
"What was the strategy of the top-performing GB assets last month, and what did they do differently?"
"How is my asset performing against the NEM benchmark this month, and what's driving the difference?"

Get up to speed on a new market without the learning curve

Use Ko to learn how prices, revenue streams, structure, and terminology work in any market Modo Energy covers. You build a working picture of an unfamiliar market in minutes, not weeks.

Try asking Ko:

"Explain the key revenue streams for a battery in CAISO and what drives each one."
"Bring me up to speed on the BESS market in Poland."
"How does FCAS work in the NEM, and how much can a battery earn from it?"

Stay on top of what's moving in the market

Ko gives you a fast read on the latest developments, prices, and revenues. You walk into every meeting current, without reading every report.

Try asking Ko:

"What are the most important ERCOT BESS market developments from the last month?"
"What's the latest on the capacity market in Spain, and when is the next auction?"
"How did battery revenues in the NEM change last month versus the previous twelve months?"

Understand how any forecast or benchmark is built

Ko reads the methodology behind every Modo Energy forecast and benchmark. Ask how a number is built, and it walks you through the logic in plain language and points you to the exact source. You can stand behind any figure you put in front of a client or committee.

Try asking Ko:

"How does Modo Energy's forecast handle nodal price formation in ERCOT?"
"What assumptions does the Germany forecast use for cycling rates?"
"How is FCAS forecast in the NEM revenue model?"

Find the right research and numbers in seconds

Ko pulls the exact figure, article, or chart you need. You skip the manual search and get straight to the answer.

Try asking Ko:

"How much battery storage is forecast to be installed in the US by 2035?"
"How many GW of BESS is currently on the GB grid?"
"Find Modo Energy's latest research and articles on the NEM."
