Store solar power and use it flexibly

Store solar power and use it flexibly

Avoid load peaks, take advantage of low electricity rates

Whether in small or medium-sized businesses, supermarkets or agricultural facilities, load peaks are a problem for any company. If the power consumption exceeds the quantity agreed upon with the utility company, this can lead to increased provision charges for all the power – often over the entire year. But a highly efficient battery-storage system can help you avoid expensive load peaks by allowing you to store solar power temporarily and use it whenever you need it.

Optimize your company’s energy mix

However, battery-storage systems have other uses. In addition to helping you manage load peaks, for example, you can continue supplying operational machines with solar power even when the sun is not shining, in turn, reducing the amount of power that you need to purchase. This means that you increase the share of self-generated power in your company’s energy mix – the most cost-effective use of solar power.

System in detail

Storing your solar power with SMA Commercial Energy Solution so that you can use it as and when needed.

  • PV system

    The PV system modules on your roof convert sunlight into solar power.

  • Sunny Tripower X

    The SMA Sunny Tripower X inverter is the core of the SMA Commercial Energy Solution​. It converts the direct current generated by the roof-mounted PV system into alternating current, which can then be used in your business.

  • SMA Commercial Storage Solution

    The SMA Sunny Tripower Storage X battery inverter converts any surplus alternating current into direct current. The SMA Commercial Storage battery-storage system stores the electricity temporarily and makes it available again as needed, allowing you to use the solar power whenever you need it.

  • SMA Monitoring (optional)

    If certain electrical devices in your company are consuming an exceptionally large amount of power and a load peak is imminent, they are supplied with power from the storage system rather than from the grid. Even with shading or at night, the storage system can supply the required power. Controllable loads (e.g., cooling or ventilation) can be operated so that solar power from the storage system or directly from the roof is prioritized.

How it works

  • SMA Sunny Tripower Storage X battery inverter

  • The SMA inverter directs surplus solar power from the PV system to the SMA Sunny Tripower Storage X battery inverter. The battery inverter converts the alternating current into direct current.

  • The direct current can thus be stored in the battery storage system SMA Commercial Storage.

  • If necessary, the stored direct current is converted to alternating current again.
