Peak Shaving & Load Shifting

Reducing Peak Loads

Your electricity consumption isn’t constant – but your energy costs often are.

High peak loads mean higher costs, oversized circuit breakers, and the risk of penalties. The solution is smart energy management using a battery energy storage system (BESS).

BESS helps reduce peaks, shift demand over time, and optimize your overall energy cost structure – even without photovoltaics. It’s an investment that often pays off within just a few years.

What exactly do you gain?

  • Elimination of penalties for exceeding 15-minute consumption maxima
  • Reduction of reserved capacity (MV)
  • Lower main circuit breaker value while maintaining available power (LV)
  • Increased available power without breaker upgrade (LV)
  • Load shifting over time (LV & MV)
  • Cost-effective even without photovoltaics

Additional system benefits

  • Payback in 2–5 years for operations with frequent peak overruns
  • Plug & Play – just a cable and a base or floor
  • Outdoor and indoor installation possible
  • Maintenance-free operation, up to 10 years lifetime, no moving parts
  • Compact and silent – requires only 1.5 m²
  • CO₂ emission reduction

Spot Trading

Trading on the Daily Electricity Market

Profit from electricity price fluctuations through smart consumption management

Electricity prices on the day-ahead market change every hour – and the differences can be significant. During peak demand (e.g. mornings and evenings), prices are high. At times of surplus (e.g. overnight or during strong sunlight), prices can even turn negative. With BESS, you can buy cheap electricity, store it, and use or sell it when prices are highest.

Spot trading with BESS is a smart way not only to save, but to earn. You’ll benefit from market volatility while helping stabilize the grid.

  • Two daily peaks to profit from (8:00 and 18:00)
  • Prices may go negative – get paid to consume
  • Average profit per 1kWh = CZK 3 (based on daily price differences)
  • Renewables deepen the volatility – you help balance the grid

  • Multiply profits by optimizing your own usage (flexibility)
  • Alternatively, cut energy prices using the same hardware
  • SPOT tariff ideal for companies (consuming during low-price hours)
  • Can be combined with Peak Shaving & Load Shifting
  • Works with fixed tariffs or as a stand-alone system
