Jordan Energy Storage Peak Shaving Project

Can peak shaving reduce energy costs?

Modern consumers actively seek cost-effective energy solutions and sustainable practices. This white paper explores peak shaving as an effective method to minimize energy costs. Energy and facility man-agers will gain valuable insights into how peak shaving applications can help unlock the full potential of energy storage systems.

What is peak shaving?

Peak shaving involves selectively transferring specific loads within a facility from the grid to an energy storage system. This process is accom-plished by disconnecting the power supply of a specific load(s) from Source A (typically the grid) and connecting them to Source B (an energy stor-age system).

What is a peak Shaver?

It is offered in the screw, push-in spring, and ring tongue connection types. It also has a built-in surge suppression and has easy-to-use accessories through snap-to-connect function. Peak shaving is critical in supporting more sustain-able electrification while managing costs.

Should peak shaving be a strategy?

BESS is one of the most effective ways to achieve a sus-tainable future. The decision to adopt peak shaving as a strategy should be carefully assessed by consumers on a case-by-case basis. Peak shaving is particularly relevant in regions where Time-of-Use (TOU) rates are implemented by electric utilities and where demand charges are substantial.
