What is peak shaving?

> Peak shaving in a battery storage system (BESS) is a control strategy to limit the maximum power output to the grid. It serves to comply with contractually agreed power limits and avoid technical overloading of the feed-in inverters. By targeted use of BESS capacity, peak loads are smoothed, directly supporting grid stability.

No own register — honestly

For this component, no own register is connected; therefore, no example value is provided here. Where the system measures, the value is read as read-only and calculated internally. It is visible via connected components.

What the AI reads in this component

What the AI reads
  • Compliance with grid connection restrictions to avoid penalties
  • Protection of inverter components against thermal overload
  • Power factor optimization through precise active power control
  • Allow for higher net injection within the scope of permitted conditions
Scenario

Monitored: continuous

The scenario: > Monitored: continuously · based on price and weather The scenario: if storage operates without preparation during peaks, it is purchased at a high price, leading to avoidable procurement costs and a loss of arbitrage. The AI: identifies early when pre-charging is required — the peak is covered, the rest earns. It detects the trend before the limit is reached.

Why it is important

Peak shaving reduces costs for overload fees and extends the lifespan of the power electronics. By avoiding peak surcharges, the profitability of the BESS is directly increased. Furthermore, the hardware is protected by more constant load profiles. shifted energy (kWh) · Price spread (ct/kWh) → — €/cycle Calculation: Energy × Spread
