- Challenge
- Flexible loads can run while little local generation is available, or start together and create an avoidable demand peak.
- Solution
- Build an energy-management plan around available generation, current demand, operating schedules and price information where integrated. Define which loads can move in time and which energy sources can be selected through the connected installation. For example, plan a flexible load for a period with available solar output, or stagger nonessential loads as demand approaches a configured limit.
- Benefit
- Create a practical path toward coordinating energy supply and use while respecting the site’s operating priorities.
