Similar to other grid applications, peak shaving is the utilization of energy storage to consistently reduce the costly energy requirements on the grid during peak demand hours. Effective peak shaving requires technologies with somewhat longer discharge durations that may be able to support multiple-hour discharges with relatively large energy requirements. 4.3.3.6.
A 150kW battery energy storage system was integrated for peak shaving and emergency power supply via a 75kW fuel cell. An exchanger also was implemented to enable the use of waste heat for cooling applications. With the integration of all the processes in a single digital platform the automation of the launching of green hydrogen production and the use of
