Fast Time‑to‑Value

Start with proven strategies out of the box; tune parameters to your site and go live quickly.

Cost & Demand Savings

Reduce peak demand charges, shift energy against prices, and increase onsite consumption.

Operational Confidence

Commission safely, validate performance, and monitor your power systems' health

Features

  • Full-cycle validation of SOC, power limits, and protections
  • Operator-defined charge/discharge power & duration
  • Ideal for test plans and acceptance procedures

Manual Charge‑Discharge

Purpose‑built for the commissioning phase. Run a full charge and discharge cycle to validate battery operation, controls, and metering before enabling automated strategies.

  • Reduce electricity costs
  • Lower stress on grid connection
  • Optimize battery utilization
  • Enhance system reliability during high-demand periods

Manual Peak‑Shave

Reduce demand charges by configuring a default peak shave limit. Any load exceeding this treshold is automatically supported by the energy storage system.

  • Calendar‑based schedules (weekday/weekend/summer/winter)
  • Hourly windows for peak and off-peak periods (time-of-use)
  • Maximize cost savings

Energy Arbitrage

Operates the battery on a pre-defined schedule, discharging during peak periods to shave demand and charging or discharging based on electricity price fluctuations to maximize cost savings.

  • Reduce electricity costs
  • Lower stress on grid connection
  • Great for predictable peak events

Auto Peak‑Shave

Operates the battery on a pre-defined schedule to reduce demand charges by configuring the battery to discharge during load peaks.

  • Maximize use of onsite PV or other DERs
  • Reduce import energy and exposure to tariffs
  • Minimize reliance on grid power and enhancing energy independence

Self‑Consumption

Prioritize local use of onsite generation by storing excess production and discharging to supply loads. This minimizes grid imports and boosts renewable utilization.
