Peak shaving is the process of reducing a facility's maximum power demand during periods when electricity prices are highest, typically late afternoon. An energy storage system discharges its stored energy during these peak times, reducing the need to draw expensive power from. . For systems with DC:DC converters on the PV array: see Peak shaving with DC converters. This will have the advantages: for the PV plant owner, recovering the energy which would otherwise be. . Energy and facility man-agers will gain valuable insights into how peak shaving applications can help unlock the full potential of energy storage systems. The goal of peak shaving is to avoid the installation of capacity to supply the peak load of highly variable loads. In short: endogenous (building-driven) versus exogenous (grid-driven) conditions.
