BESS for Peak Shaving

Reduce peak demand with battery energy storage

Peak shaving uses a BESS to discharge during short periods of high demand, reducing the power drawn from the grid and helping manage capacity-related costs.

Where peak shaving is useful

• Industrial plants with short demand peaks
• Warehouses and logistics facilities
• Commercial sites with constrained grid connections
• Sites combining PV generation with variable loads
• Facilities planning additional electrification without immediate grid reinforcement

Correct sizing matters

The economic result depends on the actual load profile, tariff structure, grid-connection limit, battery efficiency and the number and duration of peak events.
