An energy storage system (ESS) application is more advantageous than the demand response program, where it allows customers to simultaneously shave peak load and perform daily activities as usual. Therefore, future research should emphasise on the proper application of DSM with ESS system for peak shaving purpose. 6.
Amid these pressing challenges, the concept of peak shaving emerges as a promising strategy, particularly when harnessed through battery energy storage systems (BESSs, Figure 1). These systems offer a dynamic solution by capturing excess energy during off-peak hours and releasing it strategically during peak demand periods.
By implementing innovative solutions such as peak shaving through BESSs, the energy landscape can be transformed. With potential reductions in peak consumption, significant cost savings, improved grid stability, and tangible environmental benefits, peak shaving demonstrates its potential to be a pivotal strategy in reshaping our energy future.
These systems offer a dynamic solution by capturing excess energy during off-peak hours and releasing it strategically during peak demand periods. The efficacy of this approach is illustrated by numerical examples, with instances of BESS-enabled peak shaving leading to a remarkable 15% reduction in overall peak electricity consumption.
With a larger BES (50 kW/150 kWh), the average peak decrease improves from 59% to 66%. The results show that a photovoltaic generator has only a minor impact on peak shaving at the fast charging site. However, it will reduce the overall energy drawn from the distribution grid, especially during the long summer days.
