Peak capping
Grid capacity & congestion

Peak capping

Staying under your contracted capacity is worth money and sometimes decides whether you can grow. We cap your peaks by steering: planning, storage, generation or a brief reduction, without losing production.

What capping looks like

Held under the ceiling, in real time

Below is an illustrative day of load steered against a contracted ceiling — close enough to see the limit, never over it.

Illustrative example, not a real client report
The situation

Picture a connection where a single peak used to decide the whole year's grid tariff. Real-time steering now pulls the load back a few kW before it ever crosses the line, without stopping production.

A

10:00 gets within 5 kW

Close enough that the old profile would likely have crossed it — steering shaves the top off before the meter ever sees it.

B

18:00 comes even closer

198 kW, 2 kW under the ceiling — the margin steering works with, trade after trade, hour after hour.

Figures are illustrative, built to show the method. They are not measurements from an actual connection.
How we approach it

From question to execution

  1. 01

    We identify the peaks and what causes them.

  2. 02

    We define the steering options that fit your process.

  3. 03

    Our platform steers in real time to keep you under the limit.

  4. 04

    We report the peaks avoided and the room this creates.

What it yields

This is what changes for you

  • Grid costs lowered by capping peaks
  • Growth within the connection you have
  • Steering that respects your production
