Sector 01 — Commercial & Industrial
Commercial & industrial
energy systems
Engineered solutions to reduce energy costs, manage peak demand and improve operational resilience. Designed around real-world site constraints — not ideal conditions.
Site realities
Designed around real-world constraints
01
High electricity costs & demand charges
Half-hourly metering, TOU tariffs and capacity charges mean energy cost structure is multi-layered. Systems are modelled against actual billing data.
02
Grid import & export limitations
DNO capacity constraints, G99/G100 thresholds and agreed supply capacity restrict what can be installed without grid reinforcement.
03
Peak demand cost spikes
Triad charges and demand-side levies can represent 30–40% of a commercial electricity bill. Battery-backed peak shaving targets these directly.
04
Standby generator inefficiencies
Diesel standby generation is expensive to run and maintain. Hybrid integration with battery storage reduces running hours and fuel cost.
05
Power quality issues
Harmonics, reactive power and voltage instability affect equipment reliability and efficiency. Power factor correction and filtering address these at source.

Solar PV arrays
Roof-mounted and ground-mount commercial PV arrays from 50 kWp to multi-MW. Yield modelled against half-hourly site consumption data and DNO export limits.
50kWp–2MW+

Battery energy storage (BESS)
Containerised and rack-mounted BESS for peak shaving, self-consumption maximisation and resilience. Scheduled via AI-assisted energy management systems.
10kWh–MWh
PEAK SHAVING
EMS CONTROL
S-03
Load balancing & PFC
Power factor correction reduces reactive power charges. Active load balancing prevents demand spikes that trigger higher tariff bands and capacity penalties.

S-04
Hybrid & microgrids
Multi-source energy systems combining solar, storage and generation under a single control architecture. Designed for capacity-constrained or grid-remote sites.
MULTI-SOURCE

SCADA
S-05
Standby generation
Integration of existing diesel or gas generators into hybrid energy systems. Automated transfer switching, runtime minimisation and hybrid control reduce fuel spend.
