Give your business complete control over your electricity usage needs with smart energy storage. Lower your peak demand charges, use informed energy decisions, and provide real relief from escalating energy costs.
A large portion of energy bill costs for many commercial and industrial users are due to costly peak demand charges. In most circumstances, businesses have little control over when they use electricity and their peak demand, placing significant restrictions over how owners and managers can minimise the impact of rising energy costs.
Smart energy storage changes all of this. Businesses can combine large amounts of stored energy from inexpensive off-peak and renewable sources with smart technology that forecasts energy usage and optimises how the stored energy is used. This gives businesses the potential to use their own stored energy instead of the grid at times of peak demand. These ‘peak shaving’ events give businesses complete control over their electricity usage needs from their retailer, lowering their peak demand charges and providing real relief from escalating energy costs.
