Optimizing Self-Consumption through Storage of PV Energy

To increase self-consumption and to be as independent as possible from the utility grid, the excess PV energy can be stored in batteries for later use.

Procedure:

  1. In terms of projects with self-consumption option, click on Intermediate storage of excess PV energy on the page Determine self-consumption ( > Determining Self-Consumption).
  2. In terms of energy systems, ensure that the item Self-consumption increase is selected from the drop-down list under Application on the page Battery system.
