Renewable energy challenge
Despite investments in their own renewable energy generation, such as photovoltaic systems, electricity costs often remain high. One problem is the loss of self-sufficiency, as excess electricity generated is fed into the public grid instead of being used by the company itself. Low photovoltaic feed-in tariffs and a lack of overview of electricity purchases from different energy sources further complicate cost control. This challenge affects industries such as supermarkets, metal and plastics industries, bakeries, chemical companies and companies with high electricity consumption.
Self-consumption optimization offers an efficient solution. Through targeted control and use of the electricity generated on site, companies can increase their own consumption, minimize the purchase of expensive grid electricity and thus sustainably reduce their electricity costs. With modern energy management systems, such as Commeo’s energy storage solutions, companies gain a clear overview of their electricity consumption from various energy sources and maximize their self-sufficiency. This not only enables cost savings, but also a strengthened positioning as an environmentally conscious and resource-conserving company.
