Peak shaving, or load shedding, is a strategy for eliminating demand spikes by reducing electricity consumption through battery energy storage systems or other means. Peak demand occurs in the morning and evening, straining the grid and risking outages when supply can't meet demand. . Peak shaving with Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) is a smart way to cut energy costs and reduce demand charges, especially in commercial and industrial settings. By storing energy during low-demand periods and discharging it during peaks, BESS boosts reliability, and with immersion cooling. . Energy and facility man-agers will gain valuable insights into how peak shaving applications can help unlock the full potential of energy storage systems. In cases where peak load coincide with electricity price peaks, peak shavi g can also provide a reduction of energy cost.
