What preparations should be made before installing an industrial and commercial energy storage system?

As the world's pursuit of sustainable development grows, more and more companies are beginning to consider installing industrial and commercial energy storage systems to achieve the dual goals of energy conservation and emission reduction and economic benefits. As a professional manufacturer of battery energy storage products, GreenMore is committed to providing efficient and reliable energy storage solutions to customers around the world. This article will discuss in detail how companies should make detailed preparations before installing industrial and commercial energy storage systems to help companies take a solid step towards a green future.

1. Understand the electricity price

The first step for enterprises to install industrial and commercial energy storage systems is to have a deep understanding of their own electricity prices. The information on the electricity bill is crucial to evaluating the economic feasibility of the energy storage system. Not only is it necessary to clarify the electricity price system (single system or two-part system), but also to carefully analyze the various expenses in the electricity bill structure, including basic electricity charges, power regulation charges, etc. Especially the local time-of-use electricity price policy, especially the peak-valley electricity price difference. If the price difference is significant (it is recommended to reach more than 0.8 yuan/kWh), the economic advantage of installing an energy storage system is particularly prominent. By charging during the valley period when electricity prices are lower and discharging during the peak period when electricity prices are higher, the electricity cost can be effectively reduced.

2. Evaluate electricity demand

After understanding the electricity price, the next step is to conduct a comprehensive assessment of your own electricity demand. This not only involves the total electricity consumption of the enterprise, but also should be combined with historical data to predict future trends. This information helps to scientifically configure the energy storage system. In addition, special attention should be paid to the electricity load period on the electricity bill, especially the proportion of electricity consumption during peak hours, which is crucial to the potential of the energy storage system in reducing peak loads and filling valleys and reducing costs. Reasonable arrangement of the charging and discharging time of the energy storage system can further reduce electricity bills.

3. Inspect the transformer capacity

Before installing an industrial and commercial energy storage system, the capacity of the transformer must be investigated. The available capacity of the existing transformer must be accurately calculated, and the future load growth trend must be considered. Ensure that the operation of the energy storage equipment does not affect the stability of the power grid. Especially when charging during off-peak hours, the transformer capacity allocation must be reasonably planned to avoid overload operation, ensure the normal operation of the energy storage system and the safety and stability of the power grid.

In summary, installing an industrial and commercial energy storage system is a complex but valuable process. Through in-depth understanding of electricity prices, assessing electricity demand, examining transformer capacity and other preliminary preparations, companies can configure energy storage systems more scientifically, thereby achieving energy conservation and consumption reduction and improving economic benefits.
