Why Peak Shaving & Load Shifting Matters
Time-of-use pricing can dramatically impact industrial operating costs
The Problem
- 💰 Peak tariffs cost 2-3× more than off-peak
- ⚡ High-load machinery increases demand charges
- 📊 Unmanaged loads trigger utility penalties
- 🏭 HVAC & production spikes cost thousands monthly
The Solution
- ✅ Store energy during off-peak periods
- ✅ Discharge batteries during peak hours
- ✅ Smooth overall energy consumption
- ✅ Reduce bills and avoid demand penalties
Typical savings: 15-30% reduction in peak electricity charges
Peak Shaving vs. Traditional Approach
Compare energy costs with and without peak shaving
❌ Without Peak Shaving
- High demand charges during peak hours
- Uncontrolled load spikes
- 2-3× electricity costs during daytime
- Utility penalty fees for excessive demand
✅ With Peak Shaving
- Reduced demand charges (15-30% savings)
- Smoothed, predictable load profile
- Battery discharge during expensive periods
- No penalty fees, optimized tariff usage

Frequently Asked Questions
How much can a factory actually save with peak shaving?
Savings come mainly from demand charges rather than energy. For this configuration the working range is 15 to 30% off peak demand charges with payback in 2 to 4 years on EU and UK tariffs. The range is wide because it depends on load factor, tariff structure and how much of the peak is genuinely shiftable.
How is the discharge threshold set?
From your billing demand history. The EMS discharges when site load crosses a configurable kW threshold, holding the monthly peak at a target instead of chasing every spike. Set the threshold too aggressively and the battery cycles out early each month; too conservatively and you leave demand charges on the table.
Does it work alongside solar plus storage?
Yes, and the combination usually outperforms either system alone: PV surplus charges the battery, and the same battery shaves the evening peak once solar has dropped off. Running both through one EMS avoids the common failure mode of two systems competing to charge from the same limited surplus.
What happens when several high-load machines start at once?
Inrush is absorbed by the battery’s fast response and, where needed, by a discharge window sized for motor starting rather than average load. Sites with large compressors or welders should share a motor schedule with us at design stage: staggering starts is often cheaper than oversizing the inverter for a few seconds a day.
Does it need changes to the existing switchgear?
Usually a dedicated breaker and a tap into the main distribution board, without rewiring production circuits. Sites above roughly 1 MW of demand may need a transformer or CT review, and any grid-connected installation needs the local utility’s approval before commissioning. That paperwork is the usual source of delay.
