Peak Demand Optimization
Through EMS
Aligning solar generation with peak loads to reduce costs and grid reliance.
Project Scope
A 2 MW BESS integrated with 0.5 MW Solar PV and supported by a diesel generator required an advanced EMS to minimize peak demand charges, align solar output with high-demand periods, and enable automated demand response for greater flexibility.
SGA Solution
Smart Grid Analytics deployed an intelligent EMS that synchronized renewable generation with dynamic demand patterns through:
• Real-time load monitoring and control for precise demand shaping
• Automated demand response to optimize peak shifting and energy usage
• Predictive solar utilization algorithms to maximize on-site self-consumption
Outcome
The deployment delivered tangible operational and economic benefits:
• Lower peak demand charges and reduced overall energy costs
• Increased solar utilization with minimal grid dependence
• Smart, flexible load control enabled by automated demand response
• A strong demonstration of how intelligent EMS solutions can make solar generation more cost-effective by matching production with real-time demand.
