Reduce your business electricity costs

Use electricity more effectively, reduce demand peaks and assess whether battery storage makes sense for your site.

Enfy considers consumption, your electricity contract and grid tariff together. Battery storage and Enfy EMS can help align energy use with prices and available capacity.

Assess your savings potential

The grid: 200 kW; From the grid

The business: 300 kW; Consumption

The battery: 100 kW; Supplying power

The business uses 300 kW. The battery supplies 100 kW, reducing power drawn from the grid to 200 kW.

Match energy use to prices and operating needs
Reduce demand peaks where the tariff rewards it
Compare a battery with simpler measures

Buy and use electricity at suitable times

A battery can charge when the total energy cost is lower and supply energy when it is higher. The benefit depends on the price difference, battery losses, electricity contract and grid tariff. Charging also has to fit your operations and available connection capacity.

Illustrative price profile. Charging at a lower price and using energy at a higher price can create value when the spread covers losses and other costs. Not a price forecast.

Reduce the peaks that affect grid charges

When machines or chargers draw power together, demand increases. Controls can move some consumption, and a battery can cover part of a peak. We assess the actual grid tariff and measurement interval to understand whether reducing peak demand creates financial value.

Time of day

Illustrative day: the battery covers up to 100 kW of a 300 kW peak. Capacity, duration and recharging need separate assessment. These are not measured results.

Start with measures that fit your site

Changing start sequences, controlling loads or planning charging may be sufficient. Consider a battery when it addresses needs these measures cannot meet, or adds value through backup and eligible flexibility. Solar panels are not a prerequisite for assessing battery storage and energy management.

Account for the whole investment

Compare the proposal with continuing without a battery. Include installation, connection, losses, maintenance, software and operating agreements. Price shifting, demand-charge savings and market use must be assessed together so the same capacity is not counted more than once.

From your needs to a decision

1.Define the need
Tell us about your site and what you want to achieve. You do not need every technical detail ready for the first conversation.
2.Assess the inputs
Consumption, tariffs, equipment and operating requirements help us compare suitable measures.
3.Agree a practical next step
We clarify the proposed approach, assumptions and further work needed before an investment decision.

What you get

Consumption, electricity-contract and tariff analysis
Assessment of load control and battery sizing
Defined operating limits and backup reserve
A decision basis with explicit assumptions

Bring this overview to your next site-planning meeting.

Questions before choosing a system

How much could we save?: This requires consumption data, your tariff and electricity contract. An annual bill alone does not show when peaks occur. We assess measures and costs for your site before estimating savings.
Do we need solar panels?: No. Battery storage and controls can be assessed with electricity from the grid. Existing generation is included where relevant.
Can the battery provide savings and backup?: Potentially, but energy for critical loads must be reserved. This limits the capacity available for daily optimization and any market commitments.
