6 FAQs about [Insufficient solar on-site energy charging]

Can solar power reduce demand charges?

Solar reduces the amount of electricity drawn from the utility, but since solar power is not dispatchable, it is difficult to reduce the monthly peak and associated demand charges. The addition of solar to a facility can make the load more “peaky,” which then makes it more economical to install energy storage for demand charge reduction.

Can a combination of solar and storage reduce a customer's Bill?

For certain customers, the combination of solar plus storage can reduce a customer’s bill by more than either solar or storage on their own. This is possible because: Solar reduces the amount of electricity drawn from the utility, but since solar power is not dispatchable, it is difficult to reduce the monthly peak and associated demand charges.

Can solar power reduce peak demand?

The addition of solar to a facility can make the load more “peaky,” which then makes it more economical to install energy storage for demand charge reduction. Baker Electric partnered with Sharp to install energy storage alongside solar PV at their headquarters in Escondido California. The system works along with the solar to reduce peak demand.

What happens if solar power is low in cloudy periods?

However, during cloudy periods when the solar output is low, the battery (black) is discharged to reduce the facilities net load from the grid (blue). The result is that the net load from the facility (blue) stays below 50kW despite having a facility load of more than 80kW and intermittent solar generation.

How does an ESS reduce demand charges?

An ESS can reduce demand charges by discharging when a building is approaching its peak load. This is more effective for buildings with “peaky” loads as opposed to those with a steady “flat” profile. For example, the ESS shown in FIGURE 1, is only able to reduce the peak demand by 50kW for the “flat” profile.

Are energy storage systems safe?

Within a given technology (e.g., lithium ion), there can be large differences in system performance based on the specific cell chemistry. For all of the technologies listed, as long as appropriate high voltage safety procedures are followed, energy storage systems can be a safe source of power in commercial buildings.
