Homerun Resources Inc. Announces First Commercial Installation of “The Hub” AI Energy Management System on a Risen Battery Storage Asset

Homerun Resources Inc. (TSXV: HMR,OTC:HMRFF) (OTCQB: HMRFF) (‘Homerun’ or the ‘Company’) is proud to announce the successful first commercial installation of its proprietary energy management system, ‘The Hub,’ on a Risen battery energy storage system (BESS) at a customer site, marking a key commercialization milestone for the Company’s AI-driven energy solutions business.

The Hub is Homerun Energy’s advanced AI-enabled Energy Management System (EMS), built to orchestrate batteries and other flexible assets in real time to maximize revenue, reduce operating costs, and protect asset life. By connecting directly to the Risen BESS, The Hub now controls live charging and discharging at the customer’s site based on market signals, grid conditions, and on-site constraints, demonstrating full field functionality on a commercial battery platform.

‘This first commercial installation of The Hub on a Risen battery provides the validation investors have been waiting for,’ said Dr Luca Sorbello, CEO, Homerun Energy ‘We have moved from development to live operations, proving that our AI-enabled control system can unlock more value from storage assets while supporting a cleaner, more reliable grid.’

AI is central to the intelligence behind The Hub. By continuously analysing real-time data, from grid conditions and market prices to on-site consumption and battery health, The Hub’s AI models predict optimal dispatch strategies before they’re needed. This allows the system to automatically maximize revenue opportunities, reduce operating costs, and protect the battery from unnecessary wear. As The Hub learns from each installation, its algorithms become even more accurate, enabling smarter, faster, and more reliable control across an entire fleet of distributed energy assets.

The inaugural deployment enables:

Intelligent dispatch of the battery to capture price arbitrage, peak shaving, and grid-support services
Real-time monitoring and analytics, giving asset owners full visibility into performance and health
Configurable control strategies, allowing operators to adapt quickly to evolving tariffs, regulations, and market opportunities
Scalable architecture, built to manage fleets of storage assets across multiple sites

As renewable generation continues to grow, battery storage and intelligent control systems are becoming critical to balancing supply and demand. With The Hub now operating on a live battery installation, Homerun Energy is positioned to support developers, asset owners, and utilities looking to maximize the value of their storage portfolios.

‘Storage is only as smart as the software that controls it,’ added Luca Sorbello ‘The Hub was built from the ground up for flexibility and scale, so this first installation is just the beginning.’
