Storage Peak Shaving

Smart Demand Control:
Lower Bills, Same Power

Half an hour of peak, a full month of bills.

01 / The Problem

Demand charges, the invisible profit drain

Pain Point 01

Half an hour of peak, a month of bills

In a 720-hour month, one half-hour spike sets the demand charge for the entire month. Most hours run far below the peak.

Peak sets the month Profit drain
Pain Point 02

Production can't stop, peaks can't fall

Order pressure means lines cannot stop and equipment cannot be power-limited. Large equipment start-stop surges hit multiples of steady state.

Pain Point 03

Treating the symptoms but not the root cause

Expansion costs more and raises the base; manual monitoring is slow and disrupts production; ignoring it lets profits erode.

Expansion costly Manual slow
02 / Traditional Approach

Accommodating peaks, not eliminating them

Option A Symptom fix

Expand / raise contract capacity

Large one-time investment, long approval cycles. And a higher contract capacity means a larger demand rate base.

Investment High
Rate base Larger
Approval cycle Long
Option B Symptom fix

Manual load shedding

Human response cannot keep up with power swings, and it disrupts production continuity. Not sustainable.

Response speed Slow
Production impact Yes
Sustainability Poor
03 / Our Solution

Storage peak shaving, smart control

Step 1

Second-level monitoring

The EMS samples gateway power every second and continuously rolls up the current billing period's demand.

Step 2

Precise discharge

When the forecast demand would breach the threshold, the EMS orders storage to discharge just enough power. No more, no earlier.

Step 3

Smart recharging

Storage recharges at low power in safe windows, and charging is itself demand-constrained, so it never pushes demand higher.
