It's the more sensible alternative to bottle priming as in half a teaspoon of sugar to a bottle to prime them, which is at best inaccurate and at worst very intsterile.
The batch method means you add a bulk amount of sugar to either water or beer and then boil it up to dissolve then add this to a bottling bucket and mix, then you fill your bottles with this preprimed solution.
The advantages are the less the contact the less chance of infection and also the mix of sugar is better giving a consistent amount of sugar per bottle.
Hope that helps.
