Grid scale BESS can be used for frequency regulation, peak shaving (i.e. reducing demand during peak hours to lower grid stress or avoid high tariffs) and grid stability. The 750 kW BESS project at the PECC2 Innovation Hub in Ho Chi Minh City is an example of this.
[pdf] Peak shaving involves proactively managing overall demand to eliminate short-term demand spikes, which set a higher peak. This process lowers and smooths out peak loads, which reduces the overall cost of demand charges. We believe solar + battery energy storage is the best way to peak shave.
[pdf] Peak shaving refers to reducing electricity consumption during periods of peak demand when utility rates are highest. Energy storage systems play a crucial role by storing electricity during off-peak hours and discharging it during peak times, helping businesses avoid expensive demand charges.
