Peak shaving is the process of reducing a facility's maximum power demand during periods when electricity prices are highest, typically late afternoon. An energy storage system discharges its stored energy during these peak times, reducing the need to draw expensive power from the. . Whether you're managing a factory's fluctuating load or trying to optimize your home's solar setup, battery-based peak shaving offers a smart, scalable way to take control of your power bills and reduce grid stress. The goal of peak shaving is to avoid the installation of capacity to supply the peak load of highly variable loads. Businesses achieve this by using energy during off-peak hours or switching to alternative sources during peak times, avoiding high demand charges.
