Every facility faces demand peaks that drive up electricity costs. Our Peak-Shaving & Microgrid Simulation gives you a free, data-driven preview of how Battery Energy Storage and solar can reduce Maximum Demand (MD) charges — before any capital commitment. Upload your load profile, and our engineers handle the rest.
Electricity bills keep rising while cost structures stay opaque — and a single bad month can inflate an entire quarter's demand charge.
Costs climb but the structure behind them is unclear, making it hard to act.
Maximum Demand often takes up a large share of the monthly bill.
Demand peaks are hard to forecast — one spike can set the billed value for weeks.
Traditional energy audits are slow and expensive, with no guaranteed ROI.
Most teams lack the tools to identify peak hours or simulate savings.
A simple three-step path from your raw load data to a presentation-ready savings report.
Send us your interval data (Excel preferred, kW with a timestamp column). Missing timestamps are auto-corrected.
Our engineers model your tariff and multiple BESS / solar configurations to find the optimal balance of power and energy.
Demand-charge savings, payback & ROI estimation, and peak-shaving performance charts — ready to present.
Each capability below is shown through an interactive model driven by representative data — explore how our engine sizes storage and solar, profiles load and tariffs, and quantifies returns.
Model how different battery configurations flatten a load curve against an optimal target line — and find the power-to-energy balance that maximises demand reduction.
| Configuration (Power / Energy) | Duration | Avg. Monthly Shaving | Efficiency (kW/kWh) | Est. Annual MD Saving | Limiting Bottleneck |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 250kW / 500kWh | 2 h | ~240 kW | 0.48 | ~US$31,300 | Power-limited |
| 500kW / 1MWh ⭐ | 2 h | ~426 kW | 0.43 | ~US$55,500 | Sweet spot |
| 1MW / 2MWh | 2 h | ~609 kW | 0.30 | ~US$79,400 | Energy-limited |
| 1MW / 4MWh | 4 h | ~875 kW | 0.22 | ~US$114,100 | Power-limited |
| 2.5MW / 5MWh | 2 h | ~750 kW | 0.15 | ~US$97,800 | Severe energy limit |
| 2.5MW / 10MWh | 4 h | ~1,750 kW | 0.175 | ~US$228,200 | Power-limited |
⭐ Recommended: 500kW / 1MWh delivers the highest return — power and energy deplete in sync, perfectly matching the factory's peak width while keeping the efficiency ratio high.
Model solar generation hour-by-hour across every month, with surplus midday output charging storage to cover evening load. Switch months to see how the dispatch shape changes.
| Month | Peak Output (kW) | Daily Generation (MWh) | Capacity Factor |
|---|
⭐ Storage is what makes solar firm: midday surplus is stored and dispatched into the evening peak, lifting self-consumption well above a PV-only system and smoothing seasonal variation across the year.
Profile a full year of metered load to expose peak patterns and load factor — revealing how recurring monthly peaks drive Maximum Demand charges under modern tariffs.
| Month | Peak Demand (kW) | Average Load (kW) | Load Factor |
|---|
⭐ A low load factor signals shavable peaks: when peaks sit far above the average, a relatively small BESS can clip the costly spikes — turning recurring Maximum Demand charges into predictable, reducible cost.
Turn any technical scenario into financials — combining energy arbitrage and demand-charge savings into a multi-year cash-flow model with payback, IRR and a turnkey CAPEX breakdown.
| Scenario | Simple Payback | 10-Year IRR |
|---|---|---|
| Conservative | 9.6 yrs | 1.8% |
| Base case | 8.1 yrs | 3.9% |
| Optimistic | 6.7 yrs | 6.6% |
⭐ We stress-test every business case: payback and IRR are modelled across conservative, base and optimistic assumptions on tariff, utilisation and CAPEX — so the decision is grounded in a range, not a single number.
