Self-Consumption Optimization

Optimizing self-consumption with a high-performance battery storage system is a true game-changer for businesses! Finally, you can use the solar power you generate right on-site and thus become less dependent on expensive grid electricity.

How does self-consumption optimization work?

A fundamental challenge with solar power is that its generation does not align with the usage needs of many businesses. During the day, the PV system generates a lot of electricity. In the morning and evening, however, little or no solar power is generated. For businesses with high electricity consumption in the morning and evening hours to high costs for purchasing electricity from the grid. At the same time, surplus, low-cost PV electricity generated during the day is fed into the grid. This prevents the full savings potential of the PV system from being realized. The excess green electricity can be safely stored, ensuring that business operations continue reliably even when powered by renewable energy.  

The Benefits of Optimizing Self-Consumption

Lower Costs

Lower operating costs due to higher self-consumption

More Independence

less dependence on the power grid and on price fluctuations

Greater Efficiency

Improved energy efficiency through smart control

Measurably Reduce CO₂ Emissions

Transparent, measurable CO₂ reduction

For which companies is self-consumption optimization useful?

Die Eigenverbrauchsoptimierung mit einem Batteriespeicher kann für Unternehmen sinnvoll sein, deren PV-Anlage mehr Energie erzeugt, als direkt verbraucht werden kann. Beispiele hierfür sind die produzierende Industrie, Supermärkte, Hotels und andere Gewerbebetriebe.

Reference projects with self-consumption optimization

We already have a series of successful Pprojects have beenin which self-consumption optimization has been implemented. Our reference pprojects come from various industries, including agriculture, mechanical engineering, resource processing, and supermarkets.
