Energy storage can be utilized to shift the peak generation from the PV system as energy demand
fluctuates. It saves energy during periods when demand is low. Installed storage captures solar energy
and allows local utilities to be more independent in their energy mix. Energy shifting enables
organizations to get the maximum revenue from their PV generator, enabling higher DC/AC ratios for PV
plants as well as time-variant grid injection.
Various options:
? Sell energy at higher market price during peak periods (arbitrage)
? Supply electricity with a higher renewable proportion
