Guaranteed Savings with a Commercial Energy Storage System

Slash Peak Demand Charges with Energy Storage

With a Commercial Energy Storage System, as your building demand starts to spike, intelligent predictive controllers trigger a rapid power discharge from your energy storage system to offset the spike. The result is your demand is cut. This allows commercial building owners and operators to take control of their energy bills and their bottom line without spending countless hours managing their systems. The system takes care of all the complexities associated with managing your power usage.

Reduce Base Energy Charges with Solar

With a solar power system your facility generates electricity during daylight hours reducing your base energy charges and charging your energy storage system to support reduction of Peak Demand Charges. This allows commercial and industrial building owners and operators to take advantage leverage both solar and storage to reduce base energy charges.

Energy Storage + Solar = Triple Benefits

By combining a Commercial Energy Storage System with Solar, businesses save on both energy and peak demand, and get triple incentives.

  • Benefit from the 30% Investment Tax Credit for both solar and storage

  • Plus California Self Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) rebates for storage

  • Plus accelerated depreciation (MACRs)

Guaranteed Solar and Energy Storage Savings

The Answer to your Expensive Utility Bill

Your Commercial Electricity Bill Has Two Parts

1.  Energy charges are based on the amount of kilowatt hours of energy consumed.

2.  Demand charges are based on the highest (peak) amount of power a customer uses during the month (the demand charge is the highest average kW measured in a utility-specified interval, typically 15-minutes, during the billing period).

Any sudden increase in power usage like air conditioners, manufacturing equipment, elevators, etc. can result in a spike in a customer’s power usage and increase in their overall energy bill, even if the spike is relatively short in duration.


Spikes in power usage can be difficult to predict, making it frustrating and difficult for most commercial customers to understand what drives their peak demand usage. Those spikes can cost you $100s-$1000s a month in peak demand charges and in some cases can represent more than 50 percent of a company’s monthly utility bill, significantly affecting their bottom line.
