Use more on-site generation
Where there is surplus solar, storage can shift some of that energy to another time. Load profiles determine how often that opportunity occurs.
More flexibility.

Storage needs a strategy.
A battery is one part of a wider energy system. Useful capacity, charge and discharge rates, tariff structure and controls need to work together.
Understand peak demand
Review demand patterns and tariffs to assess whether controlled battery discharge could support the site’s energy objectives.
Define resilience clearly
If continuity is a priority, identify essential loads and required duration. Backup needs specific equipment and an appropriate electrical design.

- 01Interval consumption data and the current tariff
- 02Existing solar, inverter and switchboard details
- 03Available space, access and siting requirements
- 04Essential loads and the intended role of backup
A few things you may be wondering.
Do we need solar before adding a battery?
Not necessarily. A battery’s charging strategy and value depend on the site, electricity tariff and intended use. Solar integration is one option to assess.
Will a battery reduce our demand charges?
That depends on your tariff, when peaks occur, the battery’s power and capacity, and the control strategy. It needs to be modelled against real interval data; savings are not automatic.
Can the battery support the entire site in an outage?
Whole-site backup requires a specific design and may not suit every project. Essential loads, starting currents, isolation arrangements and runtime need to be defined first.
