Load shifting refers to the targeted temporal shifting of electricity consumption. The aim is to use energy when it is available particularly cheaply or when the power grid is under less strain.
In load shifting, energy-intensive processes are deliberately moved to other time windows. An energy storage system can support this process by temporarily storing energy and making it available again later.
In this way, electricity can, for example, be stored at times of low prices and used in times of high demand.
In companies, load shifting is frequently used to reduce electricity costs and optimise grid load. Typical applications include, for example:
A battery storage system can absorb electricity flexibly and make it available again at a later time. In this way, consumption profiles can be smoothed, electricity costs reduced and the power grid relieved at the same time.
Load shifting refers to the temporal shifting of electricity consumption, in order to reduce energy costs and relieve the power grid.
By shifting electricity consumption into more favourable time windows, companies can reduce their electricity costs while at the same time avoiding grid bottlenecks.
Battery storage systems can store electricity at times of low prices and make it available later, when energy demand is higher or electricity is more expensive.
In load shifting, electricity consumption is shifted in time, whereas peak shaving specifically reduces short-term load peaks.
Dynamic electricity tariffs enable companies to use or store electricity specifically when prices on the electricity market are low.
